Altitude 802.11n (450/451) AP Installation Instructions
Unpacking and mounting the Altitude 802.11n AP
The Altitude 802.11n AP has two models:
•Altitude 450: 3 internal antennas
•Altitude 451: 3 external antennas,
Unpack the Altitude 802.11n AP from its carton. Also in the carton are:
•one wall mounting bracket
•3 screws and 3 wall plugs
•one plastic rivet (Save this rivet to secure the Altitude 802.11n AP to the bracket.)
•For the Altitude 451, the three external antennas are also included.
An additional security bracket can be purchased that provides port
protection and cable management. For more information, contact your Extreme Networks® representative.
Note: For the Altitude 451, attach the three antennas to the
1Using the 3 screws, mount the Altitude 802.11n AP wall bracket. Mount it near the LAN Ethernet cable plug coming from the wall.
2Press the back of the Altitude 802.11n AP onto the bracket, aligning it with the open notches in the bracket. Then slide it down until the security spring clip holds it in place.
Note: The bracket shipped with the Altitude 802.11n AP is identical to the bracket used with the Altitude 35x/36x models. If you replace an Altitude 35x/36x AP with the Altitude 802.11n AP, you can mount the AP on the existing wall bracket.

Connecting and powering the Altitude 802.11n AP
Warning: This device must not be connected to a LAN segment with outdoor wiring. Ensure that all cables are run correctly to avoid strain. Replace the power supply adapter immediately, if it shows any signs of damage.
Note: Powering up the Altitude 802.11n AP initiates its automatic discovery and registration process with the Summit WM Controller. The parameters for this process are configured through the Summit WM Graphical User Interface. For more information, see the Summit WM User Guide.
6Power up the Altitude 802.11n AP in one of three ways:
•Power over Ethernet (PoE)
•Power over Ethernet: Adding PoE injector
•Power by AC adaptor
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
If your network is already set up with PoE (802.3af compliant), attach the LAN Ethernet cable to the RJ45 Ethernet connector in the top of the Altitude 802.11n AP.
Power over Ethernet: Adding PoE injector
If your network is not set up with PoE, you can provide power to the Ethernet cable with a PoE injector. The PoE injector must be 802.3af compliant. The PoE injector is not provided with the Altitude 802.11n AP.
Powered by AC Power Module
An optional AC power module can be used to power the Altitude 11n AP from an AC power source. It can be purchased from Extreme Networks. The part number is 15802. You need to separately procure a
