NetVanta 160 Series Unit Installation

Supplying Power to the AP

The NetVanta 160/161 AP does not have a power switch. It is powered when connected to ADTRAN's Single
Port Power over Ethernet (PoE) Injector (P/N 1700920F1) or an access controller (AC) that supplies PoE based
on the IEEE 802.3af standard. The NetVanta 160/161 can be powered by an optional external DC power adapter
(P/N 1700922F1) connected to an AC power source. The DC power adapter automatically adjusts to any voltage
between 100 and 240 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required. The external DC power
adapter is not automatically shipped with the NetVanta 160/161 AP but can be requested from ADTRAN or
your reseller.

Connecting to the AP

Connect the NetVanta 160/161 AP to the Ethernet port of the AC or to an Ethernet port on a unit that can be
accessed by the AC. Connect the RJ-45 Ethernet connector on the AP's back panel (labeled LAN) to your
network using a CAT 5 Ethernet cable. When the AP and the AC are powered on, the AP's network LED will
light indicating a valid network connection.
The NetVanta 160/161 AP is managed by the AC over ADTRAN Wireless Control Protocol (AWCP) using the
Ethernet LAN port of the AP rather than the console port. Because the console port is only necessary for
purposes of debugging beyond the typical case, a typical user will have no need of console access to the AP
.

Configuring the Application

More detailed documentation for configuring the NetVanta AP is provided in the NetVanta 160 Series Wireless
Configuration Guide. For more detail on configuring the NetVanta controlling system, refer to the AOS
Command Reference Guide, configuration guides, and technical support notes. Documentation is available
