Installation Overview
The device’s appearance is as in the figure below.
If you have purchased the wall mount kit,
proceed to place the screws on the back of the
device as show in (Fig. 1).
Next we can then proceed to connect the device to the LAN (switch
or PC, depending on the case), take care on using the RJ-45 connec-
tor; after this we can then proceed to the device’s settings
Note:
The first two pictures illustrate not recommended setup for the
AW5500; signal will strongly decrease with the antennas on this
position.
Proceed then to fix the antennas to the
female RP-SMA connectors deemed to (Fig.

the I/O ports at this point or do it later
depending on the actual location of the
device or level of comfort for performing such

Other points to take into consideration when installing the device follow
next.
The antennas are 3dBi (at 2.4 GHz) and a 5 dBi (at 5 GHz); once fixed
to the rail, do not place them parallel, otherwise their signal will
interfere with each other.
■
If the device is not going to be placed on
the rail and to be positioned horizontally,
then the antennas could be setup
making a “V” shape, (Fig. 6).
■
The openings to the sides are for the
device’s heat dissipation and there may
be inside hazardous voltages, please
never obstruct or cover them with any
objects or try to insert them through it.
■
AW5500’s factory IP by default is 10.0.50.200 you can access the
device by its Web UI once it is connected to a physical network (or
using DeviceView, for more information on DeviceView, please refer
to manual, Chapter 3). Please be aware that the PC needed for this
procedure needs to be in the same subnet, or you may refer yourself
to the devices User’s Manual on Sec. 3.1.

Field Maintenance and Service
If the device requires servicing of any kind, you may need to disconnect
and remove it from its mounting. The initial installation should be done
in a way that makes this as convenient as possible.
Voltage/Power lines should be properly insulated as well as other
cables. Be careful when handling them so as to not trip over.
■
Do not under any circumstance insert foreign objects of any kind into
the heat dissipation holes located in the different faces of the device.
This may not only harm the internal layout but might cause harm to
you as well.

Although internal grounding has been done inside, in order to ensure
overall maximum performance and protect your device it is still
strongly advised to to ground the device properly; hazardous ESD
can come into contact with it and damage your equipment.
On the power terminal block, there is a
terminal for Frame Ground, you can
choose whether to connect it to the
