Installation Guide 5
1 Introduction
The AP6562 access point, a component of the Motorola Solutions wireless controller system, links wireless
802.11abgn devices, enabling the growth of your wireless network with a cost effective alternative to standard
access points. The AP6562 access point provides multiple deployment options.
The AP6562 access point receives all power and transfers data through the same CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable.
An 802.3at Ethernet switch or power supply (specifically rated for the AP6562) is required. Motorola Solutions
recommends the AP-PSBIAS-7161-US or AP-PSBIAS-7161-WW outdoor rated power supply
An AP6562 model access point uses WiNG 5 software as its onboard operating system. The access point’s unique
WiNG 5 software enables the access point to function as either a Virtual Controller AP capable of adopting and
managing up to 24 additional AP6562 access points or a Standalone access point managed by its connected
controller.
If new to Motorola Solutions access point technology, refer to the WiNG Access Point System Reference Guide to
familiarize yourself with access point technology and the feature set supported by the WiNG operating system.
The guide is available at http://supportcentral.motorolasolutions.com/support/product/manuals.do.
The AP6562 access point is approved under MODEL: AP-6562.
This document is written for the qualified network device installer.

2 Hardware Installation
2.1 Installation Instructions
To prepare for the installation:
1. Match the model number on the purchase order with the model numbers in the packing list and on the
case of the access point.
2. Verify the contents of the box include the intended AP6562 access point, and the included hardware
matches the package contents for an internal antenna access point (see Internal Antenna Model
Package Contents on page 6) or external antenna access point (see External Antenna Model
Package Contents on page 7).
3. Review site survey and network analysis reports to determine the location and mounting position for the
AP6562 access point.
4. Connect a CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable to a compatible 802.3at power source and run the cable to the
installation site. Ensure there is sufficient slack on the cable to perform the installation steps.
2.2 Access Point Placement
For optimal performance, install the access point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights,
microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss can occur when metal, concrete, walls
or floors block transmission. Install the access point in an open area or add access points as needed to improve
coverage.
Place the access point using the following guidelines:
• Orient the access point antennas vertically for best reception (applies to external antenna models only).
• When deploying outdoor mesh networks using a pole mounted installation, install the access point at an
ideal height of 30 to 35 feet from the ground.
To maximize the access point’s radio coverage area, Motorola Solutions recommends conducting a site survey to
define and document radio interference obstacles before installing the access point.
NOTE When operating in a Gigabit Ethernet environment, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable
is recommended for Gigabit operation.

Installation Guide 9
2.3 AP6562 Hardware Mounting and Installation
It is recommended to use the AP6562 mounting bracket kit (KT-147407-01) for most deployments. When a standoff
distance is required for a pole mounted or wall mounted installation, use the extension arm kit (KT-150173-01).
2.3.1 Mounting Bracket Kit
The AP6562 mounting bracket kit (KT-147407-01) includes the access point bracket (left), angle adapter bracket
(center), and pole mount bracket (right) sections:
The access point bracket and the angle adapter bracket can rotated (plus or minus 15 degrees) and tilted (up to 45
degrees) to achieve the required angle and rotation.
The following ancillary hardware to assemble the mounting bracket sections is included in the kit::
Description Quantity
M6 serrated hex flanged screws 8
1/2 inch hex head nut 2
1/2 inch x 3/4 inch hex head bolt 2

10 AP6562 Access Point
A torque wrench or ratchet with a 10mm adapter, or an adjustable wrench, can be used to assemble the mounting
brackets. A finished assembly of the mounting bracket kit is shown below. Assembly during deployment may
differ to achieve the required angle and rotation.
2.3.2 Extension Arm Kit
When mounting an AP6562 on poles more than 3 inches in diameter, use the extension arm kit (KT-150173-01) to
provide a minimum standoff distance of twelve inches to avoid interference with the antennas. The extension arm
kit is only required for AP6562 external antenna models.

Installation Guide 11
The extension arm kit can also be used in combination with the any of the brackets from the mounting bracket kit.
The following ancillary hardware to attach the extension arm to the mounting bracket kit sections is included in
the extension arm kit:
2.3.3 Pole Mounted Installations
The mounting hardware kit and extension arm can be used in various combinations to properly install the AP6562
on a pole. For poles of up to 3 inches in diameter, attach the pole mount bracket of the mounting hardware kit at
the desired position on the pole using band clamps up to 3/4 inch width, or a 1/2 inch x 4 inch wide U-bolt and
nuts. For poles greater than 3 inches in diameter, attach the pole mount bracket using band clamps.
Description Quantity
1/2 inch hex head nut 2
1/2 inch x 3/4 inch hex head bolt 2
NOTE The U-bolt and band clamps are not included in the mounting bracket kit.

12 AP6562 Access Point
2.3.4 Vertical Pole Mount
Use the following procedures for vertical pole mount installations. The extension arm is recommended when
mounting the access point to poles greater than 3 inches is diameter.
For poles up to 3 inches in diameter when using a U-bolt
1. Thread the two inner nuts onto the U-bolt. Place the U-bolt at the desired mounting location.

align it with the pole mount section.
4. Put the two outer nuts on the U-bolt to attach the angle adapter bracket section to the pole mount bracket
section.
5. Tighten all nuts to 300 inch pounds (lbf-in).
6. Position the access point bracket section so that the bottom of the section with the straight (not bevel cut)
side is oriented toward the bottom side of the access point. Using a torque wrench or a ratchet and a
10mm socket, or an adjustable wrench, attach (but don’t tighten) the access point bracket section to the
AP6562 with the with four M6 hex flange screws.

13. If required, install and attach a Kensington security cable (customer supplied) to the unit’s lock port.
14. Attach an Ethernet cable from the access point to a controller with an 802.3at-compatible power source
or use the designated outdoor rated power supply (AP-PSBIAS-7161-US or AP-PSBIAS-7161-WW) to
supply power to the AP6562 (once fully cabled).
NOTE The extension arm is recommended for installations on poles greater than 3 inches in
diameter.
