Section 2.04 2.4 Hardware Installation
Please follow the steps mentioned below to install the hardware of EAP-300:
1. Place the EAP-300 at the best location.
The best location for EAP-300 is usually at the center of your intended wireless network.
2. Connect the EAP-300 to your network device.
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to LAN port of EAP-300 and the other end of the cable to a
switch, a router, or a hub. EAP-300 is then connected to your existing wired LAN network.
3. There are two ways to supply power over to EAP-300.
a) Connect the DC power adapter to the EAP-300 power socket.
b) EAP-300 LAN port is capable of transmitting DC currents. Connect an IEEE 802.3af-compliant
PSE device (e.g. a PoE-switch) to the LAN port of EAP-300 with the Ethernet cable.
Now, the Hardware Installation is complete.
• Please only use the power adapter supplied with the EAP-300 package. Using a different
power adapter may damage this system.
• To double verify the wired connection between EAP-300 and you switch / router / hub, please
also check the LED status indicator of the respective network devices.
