2.There are two antenna connectors in the AP-700, labeled 1 and 2. Connect the antenna cable to connector 1 (the connector closer to the LED panel in the compartment).

Figure 2-7 AP-700 Antenna Connectors

3.If installing a second external antenna (not recommended), connect the antenna cable to connector 2.

4.Close the external antenna access compartment.

5.If desired, manually select which antenna(s) to use through the Command Line Interface. See Configure Antenna Diversity.

Installing the AP in a Plenum

In an office building, plenum is the space between the structural ceiling and the tile ceiling that is provided to help air circulate. Many companies also use the plenum to house communication equipment and cables. These products and cables must comply with certain safety requirements, such as Underwriter Labs (UL) Standard 2043: “Standard for Fire Test for Heat and Visible Smoke Release for Discrete Products and Their Accessories Installed in Air-Handling Spaces”.

The AP-700 has been certified under UL Standard 2043 and can be installed in the plenum. When installed in a plenum, the AP must use Active Ethernet.
