Introduction 1
1 Introduction
As a standalone access point, the AP-7131 provides small and medium-sized businesses with a
consolidated wired and wireless networking infrastructure, all in a single device. The integrated
router, gateway, firewall, DHCP and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) simplify and reduce the costs
associated with networking by eliminating the need to purchase and manage multiple pieces of
equipment.
The AP-7131 is also designed to meet the needs of large, distributed enterprises by converging the
functionality of a thick access point and thin access port into a single device. This mode enables the
deployment of a fully featured intelligent access point that can be centrally configured and managed
via a Motorola wireless switch in either corporate headquarters or a network operations center
(NOC). Additionally, compatibility with Motorola’s RF Management Suite allows you to centrally plan,
deploy, monitor and secure large AP-7131 deployments.
If new to the AP-7131 and access point technology, refer to the AP-7131 Product Reference Guide to
familiarize yourself with access point technology and the feature set exclusive to the Motorola
AP-7131. The guide is available, at http://support.symbol.com/support/product/manuals.do.

1.2 Warnings
•Read all installation instructions and site survey reports, and verify correct equipment installation before
connecting the AP-7131 to its power source.
•Remove jewelry and watches before installing this equipment.
•Verify that the unit is grounded before connecting it to the power source.
•Verify that any device connected to this unit is properly wired and grounded.
•Connect all power cords to a properly wired and grounded electrical circuit.
•Verify that the electrical circuits have appropriate overload protection.
•Attach only approved power cords to the device.
•Verify that the power connector and socket are accessible at all times during the operation of the
equipment.
•Do not work with power circuits in dimly lit spaces.
•Do not install this equipment or work with its power circuits during thunderstorms or other weather
conditions that could cause a power surge.
•Verify there is adequate ventilation around the device, and that ambient temperatures meet equipment
operation specifications.
1.3 Site Preparation
•Consult your site survey and network analysis reports to determine specific equipment placement, power
drops, and so on.
•Assign installation responsibility to the appropriate personnel.
•Identify and document where all installed components are located.
•Provide a sufficient number of power drops for your equipment.
•Ensure adequate, dust-free ventilation to all installed equipment.
•Identify and prepare Ethernet and console port connections.
•Verify that cable lengths are within the maximum allowable distances for optimal signal transmission.
Hardware Installation 3
2 Hardware Installation
An AP-7131 installation includes mounting the AP-7131 on a wall, ceiling T-bar or an above the ceiling
orientation, connecting the AP-7131 to the network (LAN or WAN port connection), connecting
antennas and applying power. Installation procedures vary for different environments.
An AP-7131 model access point has the following port designations:
• GE1/POE - LAN port
• GE2 - WAN Port
2.1 Precautions
Before installing the AP-7131 verify the following:
• Do not install in wet or dusty areas without additional protection. Contact a Motorola
representative for more information.
• Verify the environment has a continuous temperature range between -20° C to 50° C.
2.2 Package Contents
Check package contents for the correct model AP-7131 and applicable AP-7131 accessories. Each
available configuration (at a minimum), contains:
• AP-7131 model access point (accessories dependent on SKU ordered)
• AP-7131 Install Guide (this guide)
• China ROHS Compliance addendum
• Wall mount screw and anchor kit
• Accessories Bag (4 rubber feet and a LED light pipe and badge with label for above the
ceiling installations)
Contact the Motorola Support Center to report missing or improperly functioning items.
NOTE Some versions of the AP-7131 ship with a cover (facade) to protect the
access point or a 6-element MIMO antenna. The cover disconnects from
the access point as illustrated on the next page. When attached, LEDs
continue to illuminate through the cover.

2.3 AP-7131 Placement
For optimal performance, install the AP-7131 away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent
lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss can occur when
metal, concrete, walls or floors block transmission. Install the AP-7131 in open areas or add access
points as needed to improve coverage.
Place the AP-7131 using the following guidelines:
• Install the AP-7131 at an ideal height of 10 feet from the ground.
• Orient the AP-7131 antennas vertically for best reception.
• Point the AP-7131 antennas downward if attaching to the ceiling.
Motorola recommends conducting a site survey to define and document radio interference obstacles
before installing the AP-7131 to maximize its radio coverage area.
Hardware Installation 5
2.3.1 AP-7131 Antenna Options
Motorola supports two antenna suites for the AP-7131. One antenna suite supporting the 2.4 GHz
band and another antenna suite supporting the 5 GHz band. Select an antenna model best suited to
the intended operational environment of your AP-7131.
Antenna connectors for single radio model AP-7131s are located on the same side of the access point
as the LAN and WAN port connections (GE1/POE and GE2). On single radio versions, the R-SMA
connectors can support both bands and should be connected to a R-SMA dual-band antenna or an
appropriate single band antenna. If necessary a R-SMA to R-BNC adapter (Part No. 25-72178-01) can
be purchased separately from Motorola.
R1 defines the AP-7131’s radio 1 antenna connectors and R2 defines the AP-7131’s radio 2 antenna
connectors.
Certain Rogue AP Detection features use a radio to perform dual-band scanning. The dedicated radio
should be connected to an appropriate dual-band dipole antenna (Part No. ML-2452-APA2-01).
