A
Cabling
The unit requires 48VDC power, which is delivered by the PoE injector over a
straight-through Ethernet cable.
To install the weatherproof connector
1. Unscrew the coupling ring from the waterproof connector, remove the
sealing gland, and thread the RJ-45 plug through the connector
components.
2. Insert the RJ-45 plug into the PoE port on the unit and install the
weatherproof panel connector onto the threaded coupling at the port.
3. Slide the sealing gland along the cable into the panel connector.
4. Thread the coupling ring into the panel connector and tighten it until the
sealing gland is compressed, making a watertight seal on the cable.

Basic Connection
WAN/POE
Network Core/FortiGate
Connect the FortiAP device to a FortiGate controller or an Internet connection.
Ensure that the Power over Ethernet (PoE) cable is connected to an applicable
port on your FortiGate device or PoE injector.
Caution: Adequate grounding must be provided to the FortiAP unit and
the PoE injector, in compliance with your local electrical code or
regulations.
Warning: This device complies with IEEE 802.3af PoE specification. Do
not use any PoE injectors that are not IEEE 802.3af compliant as they
may damage your device.

FortiAPSetup
Deployment through a FortiGate
Ensure that you are running the Fortinet recommended version of
software. Please check support.fortinet.com for more information.
If FortiGate is on the same network as the FortiAP:
1. Use FortiGate to preauthorize the FortiAP device.
2. Refer to the “Access Point Deployment” section of the FortiWiFiand
FortiAP Configuration Guide found at http://forti.net/ap-docs.
3. Plug the FortiAP into your local Ethernet connection. The FortiAP will self-
configure.
Or
1. Instead of preauthorizing, you can use the FortiGate to authorize the
FortiAP device after you have connected the FortiAP to the network.
2. Within two minutes of connecting the FortiAP to the FortiGate, the device
appears on the Managed FortiAP page in the Web-based Manager:
authorize and assign a profile to the device.
17

If FortiGate is not on the same network as the FortiAP:
1. Log into FortiAP directly (IP address: 192.168.1.2) with username admin
and no password, and specify the IP address of the controlling FortiGate.
2. Connect to FortiAP via the CLI using the instructions in the “Connecting
to FortiAP CLI” section of the FortiWiFi and FortiAPConfiguration guide.
3. Specify the IP address of the controlling FortiGate:
config capwap wtp acIpAddr 0.0.0.0
where 0.0.0.0 is the address of the FortiGate.
4. The FortiAP device connects to FortiGate, and then you can authorize the
FortiAP.

Le produit doit être alimenté par à de 48-57 Vdc (PoE).
Grounding — To prevent damage to your equipment, connections that enter from outside the building
should pass through a lightning / surge protector, and be properly grounded. Use an electrostatic
discharge workstation (ESD) and/or wear an anti-static wrist strap while you work. In addition to the
grounding terminal of the plug, on the back panel, there is another, separate terminal for earthing.
Mise à la terre — Pour éviter d’endommager votre matériel, assurez-vous que les branchements qui
entrent à partir de l’extérieur du bâtiment passent par un parafoudre / parasurtenseur et sont
correctement mis à la terre. Utilisez un poste de travail de décharge électrostatique (ESD) et / ou portez
19

un bracelet anti-statique lorsque vous travaillez. Ce produit possède une borne de mise à la terre qui
est prévu à l’arrière du produit, à ceci s’ajoute la mise à la terre de la prise.
This product has a separate protective earthing terminal provided on the back of the product in
addition to the grounding terminal of the attachment plug. This separate protective earthing terminal
