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.

Please only use the power adapter supplied with the EAP-200 package. Using a different

power adapter may damage this system.

To double verify the wired connection between EAP-200 and you switch / router / hub, please

also check the LED status indicator of the respective network devices.
