WAP-200 Quickstart
This quickstart guide shows you how to start up and test the WAP-200 intelligent wireless access point. For detailed configuration
and operating information, download the WAP-200 Administrator’s Guide from the Colubris Networks web site at www.colubris.com
(select Support and then Product Registration)
.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT WIRELESS SECURITY: For easy access to the management interface through a wireless connection, the
WAP-200 ships with all wireless security options disabled. Colubris strongly recommends that once the unit is installed you enable a
wireless security option in order to properly safeguard the wireless network from intruders. For more information see the WAP-200
Administrator's Guide.
Hardware overview
Package contents
WAP-200 unit
Two 2.4 GHz (2 dBi) / 5 GHz (2 dBi) dual-mode omnidirectional
antennas
Power adapter and power cord
Mounting bracket
Spring clip—if needed, insert into one of the screw holes in the
mounting bracket as shown to provide a tighter fit
Antennas
The WAP-200 has a single radio with two antennas. It can create a single
wireless cell. The antenna connectors are reverse-polarity SMA male
jacks. This means antennas or cable connectors must be SMA female
connectors with reverse polarity. Antennas can be either directly attached
or attached via a coax cable. Colubris recommends attaching to the MAIN
connector when using coax.
Reset button
Press and release the button quickly to restart the WAP-200.
To reset to factory default settings, press and hold the reset button
until the status lights begin to flash, then release.
Important: Resetting the WAP-200 deletes all your configuration settings, resets
the Administrator username and password to ‘admin’, and sets the IP address of
Port 1 via DHCP. If a DHCP server is not found connected to Port 1, the address
192.168.1.1 is assigned to Port 1 and the wireless port.
Installation
Important: Installation must be performed by a professional installer familiar
with local regulations governing wireless devices.
Important: Shielded Ethernet cables must be used for all connections.
Note: Do not connect the Ethernet port directly to a metropolitan area
network (MAN) or wide area network (WAN).
When mounting the WAP-200 on a wall, or ceiling ensure that
The surface you attach the WAP-200 to and the fasteners you use are
able to support at least 5.1 kg (11.25 pounds)
Cable pull (accidental or otherwise) does not make the unit exceed
the 5.1 kg (11.25 pound) limit
Note: Only indoor operation on channels 36 to 48—5.15 to 5.25 GHz—
is allowed.
