Quick Start Guide: Cisco 521 Wireless Express Access Point

Read This First

This guide will help you to install a Cisco 521 Wireless Express Access Point

(hereafter referred to as the AP521) in your Smart Business Communications

System network.

How to Open the Top Cover

The top cover provides access to the cable and power connections.

Caution Do not open the access point top cover as you would a hatch or

door. You could damage the cover by doing so. An instruction

label is attached to the access point. Take time to read the label

before you open the access point cover.

When you become familiar with the opening procedure, we recommend that

you remove the label and put it in a safe place such as inside the cover of this

guide.

Note Status LED indications are not visible when the top cover is open.

OL-16715-01

Follow these steps to open the top cover:

1. Put the access point on a flat surface, and grasp it with both hands, as

shown in this illustration.

Safety Information

The FCC, with its action in ET Docket 96-8, has adopted a safety standard for

human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-certified

equipment. Cisco 521 access points meet the uncontrolled environmental

limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper operation of this radio

device according to the instructions in this document and the installation and

configuration guide will result in user exposure substantially below the FCC

recommended limits.

•Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is

very close to or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the

face or eyes, while transmitting.

•The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the

constraints posed by the safety directors of such environments.

Warnings

Warning

This product must be connected to a Power-over-Ethernet

(PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source or an IEC60950

compliant limited power source.

Quick Start Guide: Cisco 521 Wireless Express Access Point

Warning

In order to comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure

limits, antennas should be located a minimum of 7.9 in. (20 cm)

or more from the body of all persons.

Warning

Do not operate your wireless network device near unshielded

blasting caps or in an explosive environment unless the

device has been modified to be especially qualified for such

use.

Warning

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables

during periods of lightning activity.

Warning

Read the installation instructions before you connect the

system to its power source.

OL-16715-01

Warning

This product relies on the building’s installation for

short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that the

protective device is rated not greater than: 20A.

Overview

The Cisco 521 Wireless Express Access Point is a single-band 802.11g access

point that features business-class management, security, and scalability. The

access point offers high performance wireless connectivity in carpeted offices

and similar environments.

The access point is part of the Cisco Mobility Express Solution that brings

together the AP521 and the Cisco 526 Wireless Express Mobility Controller

(hereafter referred to as the WLC526). The Cisco Mobility Express Solution

is the wireless component of the Cisco Smart Business Communication

System.

The AP521 is available in two configurations:

•Standalone mode—AP521s are directly connected to the wired

infrastructure and provide high-speed wireless connectivity to users in

the areas they cover. Standalone AP521s are also known as autonomous

access points because configuration and management is performed

locally at the individual access point level.

Quick Start Guide: Cisco 521 Wireless Express Access Point

•Controller-based mode—AP521s associate with a WLC526 wireless

controller to provide wireless connectivity. Controller-based AP521s are

also known as lightweight access points because configuration and

management are performed through a single interface.

You configure the access points using the Cisco Configuration Assistant

(CCA). The CCA is GUI-based software that you install on a windows-based

PC and that allows you to configure all components of your Cisco Smart

Business Communications System.

The following illustration shows all the components of the Cisco Smart

Business Communications System.

The following illustration shows the AP521 and identifies its features.
