Welcome
Thank you for choosing the WAP200 Wireless-G Access Point with Power
Over Ethernet. This access point lets you connect Wireless-G (802. 1 1g) or
Wireless-B (802. 1 1b) devices to your wired network so you can add computers
to the network wirelessly.
This guide describes how to physically install your WAP200 and how to set up
a basic configuration by using the WAP200 web-based configuration utility.
1
Before You Begin
Before you begin the installation, make sure that you have the following
equipment and services:
• An active Internet account
• Tools for installing the hardware
• Cables for WAN interfaces or additional LAN interfaces
• PC with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later for using web-based system
management tools
• One or more Ethernet network switches
• Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) to provide backup power to essential
devices

Getting to Know the WAP200
The WAP200 Access Point with Rangebooster can support communications
on up to four wireless networks, using Multiple Basic Service Set Identifier
(BSSID) and Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) technology.
The WAP200 Access Point also offers the convenience of Power over Ethernet
(PoE), which allows the access point to receive data and power over a single
Ethernet network cable.
Front Panel
The LEDs on the front panel of the access point display information about
network activity.
POWER LED—(Green) Lights up and remains lit when the access point is
powered on.
PoE LED—(Green) Lights up when the access point is powered through an
Ethernet cable.
WIRELESS LED—(Green) Lights up when the wireless module is active on the
access point. This LED flashes when the access point is actively sending to or
receiving data from a wireless device.
ETHERNET LED—(Green) Lights up when the access point successfully
connects to a device through the Ethernet network port. This LED flashes when
the access point is actively sending to or receiving data from one of the devices
over the Ethernet network port.
Back Panel
The ports of the access point are on the back panel of the access point.
RESET Button—Resets the access point to the factory default configuration.
You need to press this button for about ten seconds to reset the access point.
ETHERNET Port—Connects the access point to Ethernet network devices,
such as a switch or router that may or may not support PoE.
POWER Port—Connects the access point to power using the supplied power
adapter. Use this port if you do not have a PoE switch in your network.
WAP200 Access Point Antennas
The WAP200 Access Point has two detachable 2dBi omni-directional antennas.
These antennas are located on the back of the device.
For best range performance, adjust the two antennas so that they form a 90
degree angle.

Installing the WAP200
You can place the access point horizontally on its rubber feet, vertically in a
stand, or mount it on the wall.
Placement Tips
• Ambient Temperature—To prevent the WAP200 from overheating, do not
operate it in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C).
• Air Flow—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the WAP200.
• Mechanical Loading—Be sure that the WAP200 is level and stable to avoid
any hazardous conditions.
Stand Option
To place the access point vertically in a stand, follow these steps.
Locate the left side panel of the WAP200 Access Point.
