2.4 Hardware Installation
Please follow the steps mentioned below to install the hardware of EAP-200:
1. Place the EAP-200 at the best location.
The best location for EAP-200 is usually at the center of your intended wireless network.
2. Connect the EAP-200 to your network device.
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to LAN port of EAP-200 and the other end of the cable to a
switch, a router, or a hub. EAP-200 is then connected to your existing wired LAN network.
3. There are two ways to supply power over to EAP-200.
a) Connect the DC power adapter to the EAP-200 power socket.
b) EAP-200 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-200 with the Ethernet cable.
Now, the Hardware Installation is complete.
