mounting kit can be used on the back of the device. Screw the panel to the EAP757, and then turn the panel
clockwise to fasten it with theAP.
2. Connect the EAP757 to your network device.
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the Uplink port of EAP757 and the other end of the cable to a switch,
a router, or a hub. EAP757 is then connected to your existing wired LAN network.
There are two ways to supply power over to EAP757.
3. Connect the DC power adapter to the EAP757 power socket.
EAP757 Uplink port is capable of receiving DC currents. Connect an IEEE 802.3af-compliant PSE device (e.g.
a PoE-switch) to the Uplink port of EAP757 with the Ethernet cable.
Now, the Hardware Installation is complete. For more information on installing the wall and ceiling mount kit,
please refer to the Mounting Kit Installation Guide provided.
Using a different power adapter may damage this system.
