already selected), and then make the following entries:
•IP address: 192.168.0.22 (or any address in the
192.168.0.x network--other than 192.168.0.1, which is
in use by the AP)
•Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
•Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Leave the Alternate DNS server field empty.
5Click OK to save your changes, and exit the TCP/IP Prop-
erties dialog box, and the Local Area Connection Proper-
ties dialog box. Your changes are put into effect
immediately.
STEP 2: CONNECT THE AP TO YOUR COMPUTER
1Remove the AP from its packaging and place it near your
computer.
2Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the PoE In
LAN 5/Uplink port on the rear of the AP, and connect
the other end to a PoE switch or the Power Out port on
the PoE injector.
3Using another Ethernet cable, connect one end to your
computer’s network port, and connect the other end to
another port on the PoE switch or to the Data In/Net-
work port on the PoE injector.
4Provide power to the PoE injector/switch.
5Verify that the Power and LAN 5 LEDs are steady green.
STEP 3: LOG INTO THE AP
1On your computer, open a Web browser window.
2In the browser, type this URL to connect to the AP:
https://192.168.0.1

power supply should only be connected to the PoE In
LAN 5/Uplink port on the rear of the device.
IMPORTANT!
If the AP is deployed with ZoneDirector, follow the
ZoneDirector Quick Setup Guide, and connect the AP to
your Ethernet network.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure you do not open the Properties dialog box for

STEP 6: MOUNT THE AP TO THE OUTLET BOX
1Prepare the electrical outlet box.
The ZoneFlex 7025 requires a single-gang electrical out-
let box mounted in a wall cavity. The US version requires
a box conforming to NEMA-WD6, with a minimum depth
of 1.4 inches. The EU version requires a box conforming
to BS 4662, with a minimum depth of 35mm.
• Remove the outlet box cover from the outlet box.
• Run the required cables through the electrical outlet
box allowing sufficient slack for the cables to reach
the not yet installed ZoneFlex 7025.
2Connect the cables
• Connect an Ethernet cable providing PoE power and
network connectivity to the PoE In LAN 5 / Uplink
port using either a standard RJ45 connector or the
110 punch-down block. Do not connect both. (See
ZoneFlex 7025 User Guide for 110 punch-down block
wiring details).
• If required, connect the cable providing support for
pass-through devices to the Pass Through port.
3Mount the ZoneFlex 7025.
• Align the mounting bracket with the outlet box so
that the two screw holes line up, and pull the Ether-
net cable through the center of the mounting
bracket.
• Affix the mounting bracket to the outlet box using
the two mounting screws provided
• Snap the AP onto the mounting bracket by hooking
the two locking tabs on one side of the mounting
bracket into the two cutouts in the plastic housing on
one side of the AP, then push the other side of the
AP in toward the wall until it snaps in place.
You have completed the physical installation.
STEP 7: VERIFY THE INSTALLATION
1Using any wireless-enabled computer or mobile device,
search for and select the wireless network you previously
configured.
2If you can connect, open a browser and link to any public
Web site.
Congratulations! Your wireless network is active and ready
for use.
