What You Will Need Prior to the Installation
The items below are required prior to starting the installation:
Included in the W110 package
One Avaya W110 WLAN Access Point (also known as a (LAP))
One Mounting Bracket with Screws
One Documentation CD
This Quick Start Flyer
Required but not included in the package
One W310 WLAN Gateway
One Category 5 Ethernet Cable
Installation and Configuration Procedure
The steps that follow describe how to complete the installation and basic configuration of the W110.
Step 1: Connect the Ethernet Cable to the W110
The W110 has one LAN port on the rear panel which is used to connect the standard Category 5 Ethernet cable from the W110 to a W310 port.
Insert the RJ45 plug from a standard Category 5 Ethernet cable into the W110 LAN port. The cable also provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) from the W310.
Step 2: Connect the Other End of Cable(s)
Directly connect the other end of the cable to one of the W310 Ethernet ports.
Insert the RJ45 plug from the standard Category 5 Ethernet cable into the W310 Ethernet port. The W310 provides 16 10/ 100
Step 3: W110 LEDs
Once you connect both ends of the Ethernet cable and the W310 mobility gateway is up and running, all front panel LEDs illuminate briefly.

Step 4: Mount the W110
Mount the W110 to one of the following:
—Ceiling
—Wall
You can also place the W110 on a desktop rather than mounting it to a wall and ceiling.
Mounting the W110 to a ceiling:
!
CAUTION:
It is the your responsibility to use the proper hardware (screws/ mounting plate) for the installation, and, to mount the device in a safe and secure manner and location for your environment.
a.Attach the mounting plate to the bottom of the W110 by lining up the keyholes and snapping it into place.
b.Snap the tabs onto the ceiling

!
CAUTION:
You must use the proper screws and mounting hardware that is appropriate for the material to which you are attaching the W110.
a.Put the mounting plate up to the wall.
b.Screw through the mounting plate.
c.Place the AP up against the mounting plate. Orient the AP vertically (as shown below), with the LAN connector facing to the right.

Step 5: Configure the W110 Through the W310
The W110 configuration is done through the W310 using the Command Line Interface (CLI) or the W310 Device Manager (Web Interface).
NOTE:
It is recommended that you use the Quick Setup Guide for the W310 Device Manager or Command Line Interface (CLI) for installation and configuration instructions.
If you want to verify the W110 port parameters on the W310, you can use the CLI. This CLI allows you to check if you have the correct version of the W110 software image loaded.
a.If you have not done so already, open a CLI session for the W310 that has the W110 connected to it.
b.Type show lap parameters at the prompt to display the parameters for each W110 connected to a W310 port. In the example shown below, port 1 does not have a W110 connected to it while port 2 does.

c.It is recommended that you go to the Quick Setup Guide or the W310 Command Line Reference Guide before making any changes to the W110 configuration using the CLI.
Troubleshooting
This section describes how to troubleshoot connection issues with the W110. For configuration issues, see the W310 Installation and Configuration User Guide.
Connectivity - No LED Activity on the W110
1.Check to see if the PoE LED for the port on the W310 is either solid or flashing green. If it is not lit, check to see if the port is set to deliver Power over Ethernet. Use the W310 CLI command show powerinline to see if the port is set to receive power.
—If the port is receiving power, the Inline Operational Status for the port will display as “Delivering Power”.
—If power is not enabled, then try the CLI command set port powerinline 1/<port_number> enable to enable power for the port. (where 1 is the module number, <port_number> is the W310 port, and enable/disable is to enable/disable power for the port.
—If it is set correctly, try a different port on the W310 – if it works, there is probably a faulty port or bad
2.Double check to see if all cables are connected to the W110 correctly.
3.Make sure you are using a standard Category 5 cable to power the W110. The cable should have a length less than the Ethernet standard of 100 meters (325 feet) from the Ethernet port on the W310 to the W110 LAN port.
4.Try using a different Ethernet cable – if it works, there may be a faulty connection on the cable.
5.Try to connect a different W110 to the same port on the W310 – if it works and a link is established, there is probably a faulty data link in the W110.
Connectivity - LED Activity But Users Cannot Access the W310
Make sure you have configured the W110 with the proper Network Name (SSID) and Security settings. This is done through the W310 using the W310 Device Manager or W310 CLI.
Range Antenna Installation
The Dual Band REA is a dual band indoor antenna that works with both
2.4GHz (802.11b/g) and 5 GHz (802.11a) radios. You can optionally install up to two Dual Band Range Extender Antennas on the W110.

Perform the following procedures to mount the Dual Band REA to a wall or ceiling and to install it on the W110:
Dual Band REA Wall Mount Installation
Perform the following steps to wall mount the Dual Band REA.
1.Detach the Antenna Body from the Main Base.
2.Press the Base Top upward to release it from the Main Base.
3.Use a metal plate or a coin to push the tenon between the Antenna body and the Base Top to remove the Base Top.
4.Screw the Base Top to the wall.
5.Attach the Antenna Body to the Base Top.
Dual Band REA Ceiling Installation Without a T-Bar
Perform the following step to mount the Dual Band REA to a normal ceiling:
1.Screw the antenna directly to the ceiling through the hole on the Base; use the anchor if necessary.
Dual Band REA Ceiling Installation Using the T-Bar
Perform the following steps to mount the Dual Band REA to a

!
CAUTION:
Use electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when connecting the Dual Band REA to the W110.
1.Press down near the center of the compartment covering and slide open the External Antenna Access compartment on the W110.
The compartment closer to the LED panel contains the connectors for the 802.11 a/b/g radio.
Opening an W110 Antenna Compartment
2.When connecting the first REA cable, attach the cable to the outer connector in the compartment (connector 1).
NOTE:
There are two antenna connectors in the W110, 1 and 2 (see the illustration that follows). Connectors 1 and 2 are for the 802.11a/b/g radios. Connector 1 is labeled on the hardware. When connecting one REA, use connector 1, as appropriate. The second REA for a radio should be connected to connector 2.

Wireless Communication Range
The range of the wireless signal is related to the composition of objects in the radio wave path and the transmit rate of the wireless communication. Communications at a lower transmit range may travel longer distances.
These values are provided as a guide of relative ranges by data rates only and should ot be considered as an absolute value of performance.
The range of your wireless devices can be affected when the antennas are placed near metal surfaces and solid
—In Open Office environments, antennas can “see” each other (no physical obstructions between them).
—In
—In a Closed Office environment, solid walls and other obstructions may affect signal strength.
