2. Mounting and Connection
For instructions on how to mount your access point, please see section Mounting Instructions at the
end of this Quick Start Guide or the Operating Instructions under www.sophos.com/get-started-ap.
Warning: This equipment has a separate protective earthing terminal on the chassis
which must be permanently connected to earth ground to adequately ground the
chassis and protect the operator from electrical hazards. The installation of the earth
grounding must be done by a skilled service personnel.
Caution: Before you begin the installation, ensure that service personnel has attached an appropriate
grounding lug to the grounding cable that you supply.
Power installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA C22.1.
To connect earth ground to unit:
ÌConnect one end of the grounding
cable to a proper earth ground.
ÌPlace the grounding lug attached to the grounding
wire over the protective earthing terminal.
ÌSecure the grounding lug to the protective earthing
terminal with the supplied washers and screws.
ÌDress the grounding cable and ensure that it does not
touch or block access to other components.
Warning: Prior to powering on the unit, connect the frame of the unit to earth. For the
earthing wire, green and yellow insulation is required, and the cross-sectional area of the
conductor must be more than 0.75mm2or 18 AWG.
Protective Earthing Terminal
5Quick Start Guide APX 320X
Connect the LAN (PoE) port of the access point to a PoE switch or PoE injector using an RJ45
Ethernet cable.
NOTE: The power supply cord(s) of the PoE injector or PoE Switch must be plugged into socket-
outlet(s) with earthing connection"
The access point will now boot and try to receive an IP address via DHCP (either from the Sophos
firewall or another DHCP server in your network).
After successfully receiving an IP address, the access point attempts to communicate with either the
Sophos XG firewall/UTM or Sophos Central. In order to do so, the firewall needs to either be the default
gateway of the access point or be on the default route (most likely your route to the internet).
Whilst waiting for DHCP and searching for the wireless controller, the access point status LED will
show its current state (please see the following table).
3. Configuration
After successful connection to the wireless controller the status LED turns to solid green. The access
point is now ready to be managed.
Please refer to the documentation of your Sophos XG Firewall/UTM or the Sophos Central online help
to start the configuration of your access point.
