Cisco AIR-AP1020 Quick Start Guide - Page 11

Installation and Configuration This guide provides you with the information needed to mount AP1020 and AP1030 Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points. Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points are part of the innovative Cisco Wireless LAN Solution (Cisco WLAN Solution), and require no manual configuration after they are mounted. This document is written assuming that you have already performed a site survey as described in the Cisco Aironet 1000 Series IEEE 802.11a/b/g Lightweight Access Point Deployment Guide, that Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point locations and mounting options have been selected, and that you have one Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point per indicated location. After the site survey is done, you should have a map indicating the following: • Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point locations. • Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point mounting options: hanging from a ceiling, in the ceiling plenum, projecting away from the wall, flat against the wall, or using the Ceiling-Mount Bezel Kit. • Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point power options: power supplied by the AC-to-DC power supply orderable from the factory, or PoE from a network device or a PoE injector/hub (usually located in a wiring closet). Caution Plenum-mounted Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points MUST BE powered using PoE to comply with safety regulations. If you do not have a map, make one so you can record the MAC addresses from each location and return them to the person who is planning or managing this wireless network. Refer to the following sections to install the Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points. Note When mounting Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points, be sure to maintain a 20 cm (8 in.) separation between the Cisco Aironet 1000 Series 802.11a/b/g lightweight access points and bystanders to comply with FCC RF exposure regulations. Refer to the "FCC Statements for Cisco Aironet 1000 Series Lightweight Access Points" section for more information. For more details about Cisco Aironet 1000 Series lightweight access point installations, refer to the "Planning Notes" section at the end of this document.
