XR520H Quick Installation Guide XR520H Quick Installation Guide The XR520H Hardened Wireless Access Point provides Xirrus wireless technology in a hardened case for installation outdoors and in other harsh environments. This guide describes how to install the XR520H on a pole or wall and execute the initial power up of the Access Point. The pole or wall can be a structure that is installed at ground level or on a roof. The XR520H is not compatible with other Xirrus mounting options.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide The maximum cable length between the XR520H and the RJ-45 Ethernet Network is 100 meters. The PoGE Injector is not a repeater, so its location will not increase this distance. The XR520H can operate from a Wireless Distribution System (WDS) link. However, the unit will need to be configured via the Ethernet connection prior to mounting and power must still be supplied via the RJ-45 Ethernet connector.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide 5) Mount the Access Point on a Pole or Wall 5a) Pole Mounting For pole mounting, Xirrus recommends using metal straps (not included with the Access Point). The metal straps can be obtained from BAND-IT-IDEX, Inc. (www.BAND-IT-IDEX.com). See their web site for additional contact information. Complete the following steps to mount the Access Point to a pole. Install the metal bands through the holes in the mounting bracket.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide Once the strap is satisfactorily tight, rotate the Band-It tool back so that the strap cannot slide back through the buckle. Using the built in cutting tool on the Band-It tool, cut the excess strap. Your installation should now appear as shown here. Using a hammer, bend back and flatten the remaining strap. Using a hammer, bend and flatten the two tabs on the buckle, so that they hold the flattened strap end in place.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide The completed attachment should have the mounting bracket firmly seated against the pole. One band should be enough for most installations however a second band can be used for additional mounting security. 5b) Wall Mounting Place the Access Point in the desired location and mark the location of the mounting holes on the wall. Drill and prepare the holes for the desired screw type.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide Continue the installation by mounting the antenna and attaching the cables as described in Steps 7, 8, and 9. 7) Install an Antenna NOTE: Use only Xirrus-approved or recommended external antennas. Also see the Notices and Warnings regarding external antennas in the Warning & Notices section of this guide. NOTE: Be sure to configure the Access Point’s IAPs to the proper bands (2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz) in Step 11.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide 9) Connect the Cables 9a) POE port All XR520H Access Points are powered directly via their Gigabit Ethernet connection. Power: These Access Points are only powered through the GIG POE port. Only Xirrussupplied power injectors, or 802.3af or 802.3at PoE-compliant switches, may be used to power the XR520H. Data: Data is supplied to the Gigabit port via the same cable that powers the Access Point.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide 10) Log In to the Access Point NOTE: If you are a Xirrus Cloud customer, your Access Points are completely managed by XMS Cloud, and you may skip all of the remaining steps (10, 11 and 12). In fact, you will not be able to access CLI or the Web Management Interface under normal operating circumstances. Xirrus Cloud customers should wait five minutes, then log on to XMS Cloud to view/manage this Access Point.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide 11) Configure the Access Point Click Express Setup. The Access Point will automatically contact Xirrus and obtain its license key, based on its serial number and MAC address. This auto-licensing function requires the Access Point to have an Internet connection. A license is needed to enable the full functionality of the Access Point. In the Admin Settings section, change both the default admin username and password to improve Access Point security.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide Click Execute at the bottom of the page to set up/enable all IAPs (radios) automatically. Be sure to configure the Access Point’s IAPs to the proper bands (2.4 GHz or 5.0 GHz), to match the antenna connections that you made in Step 9b. Each must match the band of the antenna to which it is connected. Click IAPs > IAP Settings and select the correct value for each IAP in the Band column.
XR520H Quick Installation Guide Use the following steps to replace the default XBL username and password. These steps use CLI commands. 1.
