Overview
Luminate’s Enterprise Access Point (LEAP) is a new generation of services-ready LTE access points that is
cloud activated for rapid deployment by enterprise. Each LEAP is connected to the Enterprise LAN using
standard Cat.5 UTP cable and is powered by 802.3at Power-over-Ethernet. This cloud activated service
significantly reduces deployment time by automating device provisioning and firmware upgrades. With
Luminate cloud activation, LEAPs are factory shipped to any site, and configure themselves when powered up.

DC Power Socket
An AC-to-DC adapter (or any DC source) can be used to power this device. It must comply with all applicable local
regulatory requirements and the DC interface must meet the following specifications:
z48 VDC (+/- 5%), 1.25 A
zCenter-positive 2/5.6 mm circular plug, 10 mm length
Kensington Lock Slot
The Luminate Wireless AP is equipped with a Kensington slot for additional security.
10 | Ethernet Ports Luminate Wireless Access Point Installation Guide
Ethernet Ports
The Luminate Wireless AP is equipped with two 100/1000Base-T (RJ-45) auto-sensing, MDI/ MDX wired-
network connectivity ports. These ports require IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) compliance,
accepting 57 VDC (nominal) as a standard defined Powered Device (PD) from a Power Sourcing Equipment
(PSE) such as a PoE+ midspan injector, or network infrastructure that supports PoE+.
Figure 3 Gigabit Ethernet Port Pin-Out
Console Port
The serial console port allows you to connect the AP to a serial terminal or a laptop for direct local management. This port
is micro-AB USB. Connect it directly to the USB connector of a laptop using a standard Type A to micro Type A or Type
B cable.

Before You Begin
The following sections detail all the necessary steps to take before installing the Luminate Wireless Access Point. This
chapter covers:
“Pre-Installation Network Requirements” on page11
“AP Pre-Installation Checklist” on page11
“Summary of the Installation Process” on page12
“Identifying Specific Installation Locations” on page12
Pre-Installation Network Requirements
Once appropriate products and their placement have been determined, the LMCCs must be installed and the initial setup
must be performed before the APs are deployed.
AP Pre-Installation Checklist
Before installing your Luminate Wireless AP, ensure that you have completed the following:
zEstimated and procured appropriate number of APs for your installation.
zProcured an Installation ID for your project.
zCAT5e or CAT6 UTP cable of required length.
zIEEE 802.3at compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE+) source. PoE+ source can be any power source equipment (PSE),
midspan PSE device, or a suitable AC to DC 48VDC adapter.
zThe following Network services are available on the local LAN:
zDHCP
zDNS
zNetwork Connectivity
zExternal Internet
Only ENET 0 is supported. Pay close attention during AP installation to ensure that only ENET 0 is connected to
the network.

Summary of the Installation Process
Successful setup of an Luminate Wireless AP consists of four tasks, which must be performed in this order:
1. Identify the specific installation location for each AP.
2. Physically install each AP.
3. Verify post-installation connectivity.
4. Verify the AP is receiving power.
Identifying Specific Installation Locations
The Luminate Wireless AP antenna patterns are optimized for mounting in an elevated ceiling location with the plastic
housing pointed downward to the floor. A high mounting location reduces the amount of RF absorption from objects
such as furniture and office equipment in the path between the APs and mobile phones. The antennas are located under
the plastic housing and provide a uniform horizontally-directed (Omni) pattern of cross-polarized RF coverage with a
slight down tilt.
Identifying RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference Sources
Metal objects in close proximity (10cm or 4") in front of or just to the side of the plastic housing can significantly alter or
impair the antenna performance and should be avoided.
Examples of items that degrade RF performance are:
zConcrete, brick, and masonry walls
zExterior walls clad with metal or metal lathe wires supporting stucco
zModern, low "E" glass windows
zObjects containing water
zLarge metal objects in a building can reflect and re-radiate RF energy and can change the antenna patterns
zOther LTE radiating devices or DAS antennas, especially if operating on the same band
LTE APs do not operate in the same RF bands as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or microwave ovens, so the risks of
interference are lower.The AP, however, should be located as far as possible from these potential interference
sources while still meeting the other placement goals for optimal performance.

Installing the Access Point
The following sections detail the steps needed to install the Luminate Wireless Access Point. This chapter covers:
“Installing the Access Point” on page13
“Using the Ceiling Tile Rail Adapter” on page13
“Confirming Power Connection” on page15
“Configuring the Access Point” on page15
Installing the Access Point
Before you mount the AP, perform the following step(s) to ensure successful installation. For each AP you’re installing:
1. Manually note and record the serial number of each AP you are installing onto a hard copy floor plan.
2. Enter the AP serial number in the installer tool.
Using the Ceiling Tile Rail Adapter
The Luminate Wireless AP ships with two ceiling rail adapters for 9/16” and 15/16” ceiling tile rails. Additional wall
mount adapters and ceiling rail adapters for other rail styles are available as accessory kits. To install the AP using a rail
adapter, do the following:
1. Pull the necessary cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near where the AP will be placed.
2. Place the adapter against the back of the AP with the adapter at an angle of approximately 30 degrees to the tabs (see
Figure 4).
When the AP is powered on, it contacts the cloud Public Provisioning Server and gets its initial image package
and configuration.
The template for this is located in the back of this installation guide, in Appendix A.
14 | Using the Ceiling Tile Rail Adapter Luminate Wireless Access Point Installation Guide
Figure 4 Attaching the Ceiling Rail Adapter
3. Twist the adapter clockwise until it snaps into place in the tabs (see Figure 4).
4. If necessary, connect the console cable to the console port on the back of the AP.
5. Hold the AP next to the ceiling tile rail with the ceiling tile rail mounting slots at approximately a 30-degree angle to
the ceiling tile rail (see Figure 5). Make sure that any cable slack is above the ceiling tile.
Depending on local building practices, some AP installations may require an additional tile suspension system to
secure the access point. In such cases, use a M3 eye bolt to hook to a 12 inch (or larger) suspension wire with
limited slack to the structure above. Note, two pre-tapped M3 holes on both sides of the AP for this utility.

Figure 5 Mounting the AP
6. Pushing toward the ceiling tile, rotate the AP clockwise until the device clicks into place on the ceiling tile rail.
Confirming Power Connection
The integrated LEDs on the AP are used to verify that the AP is receiving power and initializing successfully See Table 1
for specific LED patterns.
Configuring the Access Point
APs are identified by their serial number and provisioned on the Luminate Mobile Cloud Controller (LMCC). Once
provisioned, the LMCC pushes the configuration info to the AP.
Install cables in accordance with all applicable local and national regulations and practices.
If both PoE + and DC power sources are available, the AP draws power from the PoE+ source.
