Installation
Drill four holes for the wall plugs, and then insert the plugs and tap
them flush with the wall surface.

Warning: For a safe and reliable installation, use only theaccessories and screws provided with the device. Use of otheraccessories and screws could result in damage to the unit. Anydamages incurred by using unapproved accessories are notcovered by the warranty.

Note: The drawings in this document are for illustration onlyand may not match your particular model.

Note: Drill 2.5 mm (±0.2 mm) holes for M3 self-tapping
screws, or 4.5 mm (±0.2 mm) holes for nylon wall plugs.
2. Use the included M6 screws to attach the mounting bracket to thedevice.

3. With its ports facing down, slide the device down onto the pre-1 Mount the Device

installed screws until it snaps into its secured position. Do not let goof the device until you confirm that it is secure.

1. When operating normally, the Power/Status LED should be on yellow
green. Blinking indicates the device is booting up.

5 Initial Setup and AP Registration
There are three options for setting up the AP for your network:

1. Ground the device by connecting a ground wire to the grounding
point on the device and to nearby good earth.

3 Connect Cables
a. Connect Ethernet Cables

1If your network is already managed by ecCLOUD, you can justregister the AP on your network by entering the MAC addressand serial number on ecCLOUD.

Connect to the AP’s web interface through a network
connection to one of the AP’s LAN ports. See section“Connecting to the Web Interface”.

Use QR-Code Onboarding to connect to the AP through a web
browser on a phone. See section “QR Code Onboarding”.

The first-time you access the AP’s web management interface, it
automatically runs the Setup Wizard for initial AP configuration. Follow
the Setup Wizard steps to configure the AP for management byecCLOUD or in a stand-alone mode.

Note: Port covers and cable glands should be tightened to atorque of 10 kgf.cm.
1. Connect Category 5e or better cable to the Uplink (PoE In)
2.5GBASE-T RJ-45 port. When connected to a PoE source, theUplink (PoE In) port connection provides power to the unit.

2. (Optional) Connect a local LAN switch or computers to the LAN
1000BASE-T RJ-45 port.

b. (Optional) Connect DC Power3

3. Wire the included DC terminal plug to a 48 VDC, 0.5 A source toprovide power to the device. Follow the wiring scheme shown on thepanel with the negative pole (-) on the left and the positive pole (+)
on the right.

c. (Optional) Management Connection
4. Connect an RJ-45 to DB9 straight-through console cable and thenconfigure the serial connection: 115200 bps, 8 characters, noparity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control.

QR Code Onboarding

Follow these steps to connect to the AP’s web interface through a network
connection to one of the AP’s LAN ports.

For quick set up and registration of your AP with the ecCLOUD controller,
you can scan the QR code on the AP using a phone.

1. Connect a PC directly to one of the AP’s LAN ports.

Follow these steps:

2. Set the PC IP address to be on the same subnet as the AP LAN port

1. Make sure the AP is powered on and connected to the Internet.

default IP address. (The PC address must start 192.168.2.x withsubnet mask 255.255.255.0.)

2. Use the camera or a barcode app on your phone to scan the AP’s
QR code. The QR code is printed on a label next to the AP’s ports.

3. Enter the AP’s default IP address of 192.168.2.1 into the webbrowser address bar.

Note: To connect to the web interface using the Uplink (PoE)
port, the IP address is automatically assigned through DHCP bydefault. If a DHCP server is unreachable, the Uplink (PoE) port
reverts to a fallback IP address of 192.168.1.10.

4. On first-time log in to the web interface, the Setup Wizard starts andyou must select how the AP will be managed using the ecCLOUD
controller or in stand-alone mode.

3. When a message pops up, tap “yes” to join the Wi-Fi network(iPhone requires you to go to Settings > Wi-Fi or open the browser
for the message to pop up).
The web browser should open and redirect to the Setup Wizardpage.

Note: If the phone cannot connect to the Wi-Fi network, typethe SSID (network name) and password manually. The SSID
name is the AP serial number (for example, EC0123456789),
and the password is the AP MAC address (for example,903CB3BC1234).
4. After setting a new password and the regulatory country, select tomanage the AP using the ecCLOUD controller or to manage the AP
in stand-alone mode.

5. Continue with the Setup Wizard to make other settings:
Cloud-Managed Mode: Select the country of operation.

Stand-Alone Mode: Use the default wireless network setting
or customize the network name, then set a password (thedefault user name is “admin” with password “admin”), andselect the country of operation.

6. Click “Done” to finish the setup wizard.
Note: For more information on the Setup Wizard and AP
configuration, refer to the User Manual.

a.

Stand-Alone Mode: Use the default wireless network setting
or customize the network name and password. Tap “Done” tofinish the Setup Wizard.
Wait about two minutes for the AP configuration to update, andthen connect to the wireless network name configured in thesetup wizard. The browser is then redirected to the login pageof the AP.

Cloud-Managed Mode: Tap “Done” to finish the setup wizard
and the browser is redirected to the ecCLOUD login page.

Quick Start Guide

If you already have an ecCLOUD account, log in and select asite for the AP. The AP is automatically registered for cloudmanagement. After you tap “Save,” wait about two minutes forthe cloud controller to configure the AP.

If you do not have an ecCLOUD account, tap “I want toregister” and first set up an account. Create a cloud and site
before confirming the regulatory country. After tapping “Next,”
the AP is then automatically registered for cloud management.
After you tap “Save,” wait about two minutes for the cloudcontroller to configure the AP.

Note: Refer to the Edgecore ecCLOUD Controller User
