To set up the RoamAbout AP, perform the following steps:

1.Remove the plastic cap from the radio connector(s) and connect it to the pigtail cable.

2.Connect the AP pigtail to the antenna as appropriate for your cable configuration. Refer to Connecting the Antenna Cables on page 3‐34.

3.Connect the Ethernet cable from the AP to the AP connector on the power adapter.

4.Record the AP’s MAC address (located on the side of the unit).

5.Record the radio cards’ MAC addresses.

6.If you are using PoE, connect the Ethernet cable to your PoE switch.

7.If your switch does not support PoE, you will need to provide an inline power injector, or use the local power option on the RBT‐4102.
