Hardware Installation

4.3Requirements

The minimum installation requirements for a single-cell, peer-to-peer network:

•a power outlet

•an AP antenna.

The 4131 AP supports a 10/100Base-T unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wired LAN cabling connection. For management user interface access to the serial connector, use a standard null-modem cable for direct serial connection.

Order a null-modem cable, part number 61383-00-0, by contacting a Symbol sales representative.

Test and use the radio network with an MU.

4.3.1Network Connection

Locate connectors for Ethernet and power on the back of the AP.

Ethernet configurations vary according to the environment. Determine the Ethernet wiring to connect the 4131 AP, 10/100Base-T UTP or single cell.

The site survey determines the number of APs to install and their location.

4.3.210/100Base-T UTP

Use a 10/100Base-T connection for an AP attached to a wired UTP Ethernet hub. Normal 10/100Base-T limitations apply.

To connect the 10/100Base-T UTP:

1.Plug the data cable RJ-45 connector into the AP RJ-45 connector.

2.Plug the other end of the data cable into the LAN access port (possibly a hub or wall connection).
