Installation and Configuration

This document is written assuming that you have already determined the 802.11 topology as described in the Appliance Mode sections in the Product Guide. Because the Radio Resource Management (RRM) feature automatically detects and configures the access points as they appear on the network, it is not necessary to have any access points on the network to install and configure controllers.

The controller is a slim 9 x 5.5 x 1.5 in. (22.9 x 14.0 x 3.8 cm) chassis that can be rack, desktop, or shelf mounted. As shown in the following figures, the controller is shipped with 19 in. (48.26 cm) EIA rack-mount ears and four rubber mounting feet.

The following figure shows the controller, which has two front-panel 1000BASE-SX connectors.

Note The 1000BASE-SX Network Adapters provides 100/1000 Mbps wired connections to a network through 850nM (SX) fiber-optic links using LC physical connectors.
