Dell Networking W-AP110 Series Access Point

Installation Guide

The Dell Networking W-AP110 Series (W-AP114 and W-AP115) wireless access

points (AP) support the IEEE 802.11n standard for high-performance WLAN. They

use MIMO (Multiple-in, Multiple-out) technology and other high-throughput mode

techniques to deliver high-performance, 802.11n 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz functionality

while simultaneously supporting existing 802.11a/b/g wireless services. The W-AP110

Series access point works only in conjunction with an Dell Networking W-Series

mobility controller.

The W-AP110 Series access point provides the following capabilities:

 Wireless transceiver

 Protocol-independent networking functionality

 IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n operation as a wireless access point

 IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n operation as a wireless air monitor

 Compatibility with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and 802.3af PoE

 Central management configuration and upgrades through a Dell controller

External Antenna Connectors

The W-AP114 access point is equipped with three external antenna connectors. The

connectors are labeled ANT0, ANT1, and ANT2 and correspond to radio chains 0, 1,

and 2.

USB Interface

The W-AP110 Series access point is equipped with a USB interface for connectivity

with cellular modems.

Console Port

The serial console port allows you to connect the W-AP110 Series access point to a

serial terminal or a laptop for direct local management. This port is a RJ-45 female

connector with the pinouts described in Figure 4. Connect it directly to a terminal or

terminal server using an Ethernet cable.

Serial Port Pin-Out

Ethernet Port

The W-AP110 Series access point is equipped with one 10/100/1000Base-T (RJ-45)

auto-sensing, MDI/MDX wired-network connectivity port. This port supports IEEE

802.3af and 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) compliance, accepting 48 VDC

(nominal) as a standard defined Powered Device (PD) from a Power Sourcing

Equipment (PSE) such as a PoE midspan injector, or network infrastructure that

supports PoE. The port has RJ-45 female connectors with the pin-outs shown in

Figure 5.

DC Power Socket

If PoE is not available, an optional Dell AP AC-DC adapter kit (sold separately) can

be used to power the W-AP110 Series access point.

Additionally, a locally-sourced AC-to-DC adapter (or any DC source) can be used to

power this device, as long as it complies with all applicable local regulatory

requirements and the DC interface meets the following specifications:

 12 VDC (+/- 5%)/18W

 Center-positive 1.7/4.0 mm circular plug, 9.5 mm length

Reset Button

The reset button can be used to return the W-AP110 Series access point to factory

default settings. To reset the AP:

1. Power off the AP.

2. Press and hold the reset button using a small, narrow object, such as a paperclip.

3. Power-on the AP without releasing the reset button. The power LED will flash

within 5 seconds.

4. Release the reset button.

The power LED will flash again within 15 seconds indicating that the reset is

completed. The AP will now continue to boot with the factory default settings.

Before You Begin

Pre-Installation Network Requirements

After WLAN planning is completed and the appropriate products and their

placement have been determined, the Dell controller(s) must be installed and initial

setup be performed before the Dell APs are deployed.

For initial setup of the controller, refer to the Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS

Quick Start Guide corresponding to the software version installed on the controller.

AP Pre-Installation Checklist

Before installing the W-AP110 Series access point, ensure that you have the

following:

 CAT5e or better UTP cable of required length

 One of the following power sources:

 IEEE 802.3at or 802.3af-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) source. The

POE source can be any power source equipment (PSE) controller or midspan

PSE device

 Dell AP AC-DC adapter kit (sold separately)

 Dell controller provisioned on the network:

 Layer 2/3 network connectivity to your access point

 One of the following network services:

 Aruba Discovery Protocol (ADP)

 DNS server with an “A” record

 DHCP Server with vendor-specific options

Summary of the Setup Process

Successful setup of a W-AP110 Series access point consists of five tasks, which must

be performed in this order:

1. Verify pre-installation connectivity.

2. Identify the specific installation location for each AP.

3. Install each AP.

4. Verify post-installation connectivity.

5. Configure each AP.

Verifying Pre-Installation Connectivity

Before you install the W-AP110 Series access points in a network environment, make

sure that they can locate and connect to the controller after power on.

Specifically, you must verify the following conditions:

 When connected to the network, each AP is assigned a valid IP address

 APs can locate the controller

Refer to the Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS Quick Start Guide for instructions

on locating and connecting to the controller.

Identifying Specific Installation Locations

You can mount the W-AP110 Series access point on a wall or on the ceiling. Use the

AP placement map generated by the Dell Airwave VisualRF Plan software application

to determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close as

possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from

obstructions or obvious sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/

interference sources will impact RF propagation and should have been accounted for

during the planning phase and adjusted for in VisualRF plan.

Identifying Known RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference Sources

Identifying known RF absorbers, reflectors, and interference sources while in the

field during the installation phase is critical. Make sure that these sources are taken

into consideration when you attach an AP to its fixed location. Examples of sources

that degrade RF performance include:

 Cement and brick

 Objects that contain water

 Metal

 Microwave ovens

 Wireless phones and headsets

Note: The W-AP110 Series requires Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS 6.3.1.0 or

later.

Note: Inform your supplier if there are any incorrect, missing, or damaged parts. If

possible, retain the carton, including the original packing materials. Use these

materials to repack and return the unit to the supplier if needed.
