REVIEW DRAFT — CISCO CONFIDENTIAL

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Cisco AP541N. The Cisco AP541N, part of the

Cisco Smart Business Communications System (SBCS), is a wireless

network communications device.

This guide is designed to familiarize you with the general layout of the

access point, how to deploy the device in your network, and access the

configuration interface. Your access point has more features or

functionality than what is described in this guide. For additional

configuration information, see the Cisco AP541N Administration Guide

available at www.cisco.com/go/TBD.

Before You Begin

Decide if you are going to configure the device by using a static IP address

or the IP address assigned by a network DHCP server.

NOTE It is expected that a static IP address to be assigned to the

access point is based on the network topology and known prior

to installation.

If while displaying the configuration window the IP address is

changed, either by a DHCP server or manually, you will loose

connectivity between the PC and the access point.

Also make sure that you have the following equipment and services:

•Tools for installing the hardware

•PC with Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 6 and higher), Firefox

(version 3 or higher), or Safari (for Mac).

•TBD

•Need Eng to provide the information for this section.

Getting to Know the Cisco

AP541N

This section describes the exterior of the access point.

Front Panel LEDs

PWR—Lights green while the access point is powered on. Blinks during a

firmware upgrade.

PoE—Lights green when Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) is powering the

access point.

Diag—Lights red during the power-on-self-test (POST) or the system is

otherwise not ready.

Speed—The LAN LED light is off when the LAN port data speed is zero or

10 Mbps. Lights amber to indicate the LAN port data speed is 100 Mbps.

Lights green to indicate the LAN port data speed is 1000 Mbps.

LAN—Lights solid green when a link is established. Blinks green when the

port is passing traffic.

WLAN 2.4G—Lights solid green when a 2.4 GHz wireless network link is

established. Blinks green when the link is passing traffic. The light is off

when the 2.4 GHz radio is off.

WLAN 5.0G—Lights solid green when a 5.0 GHz wireless network link is

established. Blinks green when the link is passing traffic. The light is off

when the 5.0 GHz radio is off.

Back Panel Ports

Ethernet Port—The access point is equipped with an auto-sensing, Gigabit

Ethernet (802.3) port used for configuration and wired network

communications. Auto-sensing technology enables the port to

automatically detect the speed and duplex settings of the device

connected to it, and adjust its speed and duplex settings to match the

settings of the connected device. The Gigabit Ethernet port accepts an

RJ-45 connector and supports Power-over-Ethernet (PoE).

NOTE We recommend using Cat5e or better cable. Also, do not

exceed the maximum cabling distance of 328 feet (100

meters) per segment.

ANT01, ANT02, and ANT03—BNC connectors that accept the antennas

provided with the access point.

Installing the Cisco AP541N

The access point can be placed on a wall, a flat surface, a ceiling, or in a

ceiling plenum space. A ceiling mount kit is available for this device

(SKU#). Do not deploy the device in a location where any of the following

conditions exist:

High Ambient Temperature—The ambient temperature must not

exceed 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40C).

Reduced Air Flow—The air flow must be adequate to prevent

overheating.

Mechanical Overloading—The device should be level, stable, and

secure to avoid it sliding or shifting out of position.

Circuit Overloading—Adding the device to the power outlet or a PoE

port must not overload that circuit or PoE device.

NOTE We recommend using Cat5e or better cable. Also, do not

exceed the maximum cabling distance of 328 feet (100

meters).

To place the access point on a desktop, install the four rubber feet

(included) on the bottom of the access point. Place the device on a flat

surface.

To prepare the device, do the following:

STEP 1Attach the antennas to the RP-TNC connectors labeled ANT101,

ANT102, and ANT103. The antennas are all the same, so which

antenna is attached to what connector is of no consequence.

STEP 2Determine where you want to locate the access point. If you are

using AC power, make sure the location is within reach of an AC

power outlet.

STEP 3Keep enough ventilation space for the access point and check for

any environmental restrictions.

Wall Mounting

Before you begin, you need 2 wallboard screws (included) to mount the

access point. We recommend using screws with a minimum of 4mm width

at the head and a shaft diameter of at least 1.5mm.

WARNING Cisco is not responsible for damages incurred by insecure wall-

mounting.

To mount the access point to the wall:

STEP 1Determine where you want to mount the access point. Verify that

the surface is smooth, flat, dry, and sturdy.

STEP 2Drill two pilot holes into the surface 5.75 inches (146 mm) apart,

and with a minimum of 4.0 inches (101 mm) of clearance.

STEP 3Insert a screw into each hole, leaving a gap between the surface

and the base of the screw head of at least 0.1 inches (3 mm).

STEP 4Place the access point wall-mount slots over the screws and slide

the access point down until the screws fit snugly into the wall-

mount slots.

Flat Surface Installation

To prepare the device for placement the device on a flat surface, do the

following:

STEP 1Install the four rubber feet (included) on the bottom of the device.

STEP 2Place the access point on a desktop near an AC power source,

unless you are using PoE.

Connecting the Equipment

This section describes the process for connecting the device to power

and the network.

STEP 1Attach the power cord to the power connector and outlet (if used).

STEP 2Connect a network Ethernet cable to the access point Ethernet

port.

STEP 3Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your network or the

Ethernet port of the PC you are using to configure the access point.

WARNING DHCP is enabled by default. If a DHCP server is running on your

network and you have not turned DHCP off, the device will

accept a new IP address when it is connected to your network.

You must use this IP address to configure the device.

Verifying the Hardware

Installation

To verify the hardware installation, complete the following tasks:

• Check the cable connections.

•Check the LED states, as described in Getting to Know the Cisco

AP541N, page 3.

NOTE If you need help resolving a problem, visit the Cisco Small

Business Support Community at www.cisco.com/go/

Getting Started with the

Configuration

This section contains information for starting the configuration utility to

provision the access point features. It also describes enabling the radio

that is turned off by default.

You can display the configuration utility by entering the access point IP

address in the URL field of a Web browser. The access point IP address is

the:

•factory default access point static IP address, if it has not been

changed in a previous configuration or replaced by an IP address

assigned by a DHCP server running on the network.

•dynamically assigned IP address allocated to the access point by a

DHCP server.

TIP If you deploy the Cisco AP541N in a Cisco Small Business

Pro network that is running DHCP, you can use

Cisco Configuration Assistant 2.0 or higher to discover the

Cisco AP541N IP address.

The factory defaults are:

Parameter Default Value

username cisco

password cisco

IP connection type DHCP

default IP 192.168.10.10

subnetmask 255.255.255.0

default gateway 192.168.10.1

data VLAN 1

voice VLAN 100

radio Off

data SSID cisco–data (VLAN 1)
