Install the AP

The following sections describe how to mount your AP on a dropped ceiling track or to a wall.

Shipping Carton Contents

The AP630 access point shipping carton contains the following items:

You can mount the AP630 on a flat surface or wall, or on the rails of a standard dropped ceiling grid. There is also an accessory mounting bracket that allows you to install the device in Armstrong-style dropped ceilings (ordered separately).

The following sections describe how to install your AP630 devices and connect them to the network.

Use the following illustration to install the mounting bracket to a dropped ceiling rail.

Install the AP on a Ceiling Track

The AP630 ships with a mounting bracket that lets you easily install it on the rail of a standard dropped ceiling grid.

Once the bracket is secure, you can install the AP by aligning the red dot on the bracket with the red dot on the AP. Keeping the dots aligned, raise the AP up until the bracket fits into the circular depression in the bottom of the AP. When the AP is firmly seated, rotate it clockwise until it clicks in to place as shown here.

Mount the AP on a Wall

Use the holes in the bracket as a template to mark the wall. Drill holes in the wall and attach the bracket to the wall using wall screws and wall anchors if necessary. Attach the AP to the bracket in the same manner as shown in the previous section.

Connect the AP to the Network

Follow these steps to connect your AP630 to PoE (Power over Ethernet) power and to the network.

  1. Connect a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable from ETH0 on the AP to a switch that provides PoE power, or use a PoE injector (see "Ethernet Ports").
  2. After the AP receives power, it automatically tries to get network settings and contact ExtremeCloud IQ. This process takes about five minutes. When you see the AP listed on the Devices page in the Manage section of the ExtremeCloud IQ GUI, the initial setup is complete and you can begin managing the AP with ExtremeCloud IQ.

Hardware Components

You can see the hardware components of the AP630 in the illustration below and read about them in the sections that follow.

Component Descriptions

Status Light

The round status light on the top corner of the device conveys operational states for system power, firmware updates, Ethernet and wireless interface activity, and major alarms. The AP630 has a round status light on the top right corner of the chassis. At setup, this light cycles through the following sequence:

Ethernet Ports

The AP630 has two RJ45 Ethernet ports (Eth0 and Eth1) that automatically negotiate half- and full-duplex connections with the connecting device. The ports are autosensing and adjust to straight-through and crossover standard Cat2, Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6 Ethernet cables automatically. The AP receives power through an Ethernet connection to the ETH0 port from PSE (power sourcing equipment) that is compatible with the 802.3at and 802.3at standards.

Console Port

The AP630 has one RJ45 Console port. Use this port to make a serial connection between your management system and the AP. The management station from which you connect to the device must have a VT100 emulation program, such as Tera Term Pro © (a free terminal emulator) or Hilgraeve HyperTerminal ® (provided with Windows ® operating systems from XP forward). The serial connection settings are: 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.

USB Port

The AP630 has a USB port that you can use to connect USB-based beacons (iBeacon, for example) and IoT (Internet of Things) devices. To access the port, remove the screw that secures the protective cover.

Reset Button

Use the Reset button to reset the device or restore the factory default settings. Insert a paper clip or similar tool into the Reset pinhole and press the button. To reboot the device, press the button for 5 seconds. To return the configuration to the factory default settings, press it for at least 10 seconds. After releasing the button, the indicator light goes dark, and then glows steady amber while the firmware loads and the system performs a self-test. After the software finishes loading and the AP has connected to ExtremeCloud IQ, the status indicator glows steady white.

To prevent the reset button from resetting the configuration, enter this command:

no reset-button reset-config-enable

When this command is enabled, pressing the button for 5 seconds will still reboot the AP, but pressing it for more than 10 seconds will not reset its configuration.

Security Lock Slot

You can secure the AP using a Kensington® lock in the lock slot on the the device, or you can use a security bracket and a crosshead screw or a security screw. Security brackets and screws can be ordered separately from Extreme Networks (not available in Brazil).

Extreme Networks recommends a variety of Kensington locks. For more information, contact your sales representative.
