T750 Access Point
Quick Setup Guide
NOTE: The minimum soware revision for the T750 Omni is
ZoneDirector (ZD) 10.4 or later, or SmartZone (SZ) 5.2 or later, or
standalone AP rmware 114.X or later.
This Quick Setup Guide provides step-by-step instrucons on how to eld-
install the Ruckus Wireless T750 Omni access point (AP). For detailed
informaon on planning the installaon, performing a site survey, and
operang the T750 Omni, refer to the Ruckus Wireless Outdoor Access
Point User Guide, available at hps://support.ruckuswireless.com.
WARNING! Only trained and qualied personnel should be allowed to
install, replace, or service this equipment. Only to be installed in
restricted access areas.
WARNING! Installaon of this equipment must comply with local and
naonal electrical codes.
CAUTION! Make sure that you form a 80mm - 130mm (3”-5”) drip loop
in any cable that is aached to the AP or the building. This will prevent
water from running along the cable and entering the AP or the building
where the cable terminates.
CAUTION! Be sure that grounding is available and that it meets local
and naonal electrical codes. For addional lightning protecon, use
lightning rods and lightning arrestors.
CAUTION! Make sure that proper lightning surge protecon
precauons are taken according to local electrical code.
WARNING! Ruckus Wireless strongly recommends that you wear eye
protecon before mounng the T750 Omni.

Mounng Instrucons
Connecng and Sealing the RJ-45 Cables
The T750 may use zero, or one or two RJ-45 cables, one for Ethernet when
congured as a Root AP (RAP), and another when the T750 is supplying
PoE out to a peripheral device, such as a small cell or micro cell radio.
When the T750 uses RJ-45 cables, connect and seal the cables using the
M25 data cable glands as shown in Figure 2.

4. Connue with Mounng the Linkage Bracket to the U-Joint Bracket on
page 3.
Mounng the Linkage Bracket to the U-Joint Bracket
1. The linkage bracket aaches to the U-joint bracket using an M8 bolt
and washer set. The linkage bracket is symmetrical, and either end
can be aached to the U-joint bracket.
NOTE: Make sure that linkage bracket is installed with its serrated
external-tooth lock washer on the inside of the U-joint bracket
anges. This ensures that the azimuth adjustment does not
change.
2. Loosely assemble the linkage bracket (1), the U-joint bracket (3), one
serrated external-tooth lock washer (2), and one M8 bolt and washer
set (4).

5. Connue with Aaching the AP Bracket to the Linkage Bracket on
page 3.
Aaching the AP Bracket to the Linkage Bracket
Aach the AP bracket to the linkage bracket using the included bolt, lock
washer, at washer, serrated external-tooth washer and nut shown in the
illustraon below.
The linkage bracket is symmetrical, and either end can be aached to the
AP bracket.
Loosely assemble the AP bracket to the linkage bracket using the M8 bolt,
washer and nut set.
FIGURE 8 Aach the linkage bracket to the AP bracket
NOTE: Make sure that the linkage bracket is installed with its serrated
external-tooth lock washer on the inside of the AP bracket anges. This
ensures that the elevaon adjustment does not change.
Aaching the AP Bracket to the Access Point
1. Place the AP bracket onto the back side of the AP so that the four
larger screw holes on the bracket align with the four screw holes on
the AP.
FIGURE 9 Aaching the AP bracket to the AP
2. Use four 0.5-inch x 0.250-28 hex bolts with split lock and at washer
sets to mount the AP bracket to the AP. Tighten the bolts to 2.5-3.0
N.m (22-27 in-lbs).
CAUTION! Make sure that the screws are no longer than 0.5 inch.
If a screw is longer than 0.5 inch, it can damage the AP chassis.
NOTE: This kit may include extra screws, nuts and washers. You
may use the extras where required.
3. Connue with Set the Elevaon and Tighten the Elevaon Bolt on
page 3.
Set the Elevaon and Tighten the Elevaon Bolt
1. Set the elevaon required by the AP.
2. Tighten the M8 bolt to 13.6 N.m (120 in-lbs).
3. Connue with Powering the AP with AC on page 3.
Powering the AP with AC
1. Separate the AC cable connector parts by unscrewing the boot from
the cable gland and the cable gland from the connector housing..
2. Feed the end of the AC cable through the boot and cable gland.
3. Strip the AC cable as shown.
4. Insert the stripped part of the conductors into the appropriate
terminals on the connector housing. The conductors are color coded
and must be connected to the appropriate terminals as shown in
gure below.
NOTE: The color coding of wire conductors varies by region. Before
compleng this step, check your local wiring standards for
guidance.

6. Mate the cable gland with the connector housing, and then hand-
ghten.
NOTE: Two dierent-sized grommets are supplied in the AC
connector assembly kit. Use the grommet that is appropriate to
the diameter of the AC cable that you are using.
7. Mate the boot with the cable gland, and then hand-ghten to seal.
8. Connect the AC cord connector that you have assembled to the AC
power socket on the AP.
9. Connect the AC cord to an AC power source.
Earth Grounding the AP
CAUTION! Make sure that earth grounding is available and that it meets
local and naonal electrical codes. For addional lightning protecon,
use lightning rods and lightning arrestors.
NOTE: The color coding of ground wires varies by region. Before
compleng this step, check your local wiring standards for guidance.
Using the factory-supplied ground wire and ground screw/washer set,
connect a good earth ground to the AP chassis ground point.
CAUTION! The T750 AP includes one 9 mm stainless steel M6 x1 earth
ground screw with split lock and at washers. Make sure that any
replacement screw is no longer than 9 mm. If a screw is longer than 9
mm, it can damage the AP chassis.

Congratulaons! You have mounted your T750 access point.
Installing a USB Dongle
To install a USB dongle (such as an IoT radio device), remove the two 3 mm
hex screws, remove the cap, and insert the dongle into the USB port.
Once installed, replace the cap and the hex screws, and torque the screws
to 0.79 N.m (7 in-lbs).

Troubleshoong
CAUTION! If required, you can reset the AP to its factory default
sengs by pressing the reset buon located inside the PoE IN port. Use
the p of a pen or a 3mm at blade screwdriver to press the reset
buon. Press and hold the reset buon for 4+ seconds to restore to
factory defaults. DO NOT RESET THE AP TO FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS
UNLESS SO INSTRUCTED. (Doing this resets the AP IP address to
192.168.0.1.)
NOTE: Aer a reset, you can access the internal AP web interface using
hps://192.168.0.1. Your device must use any other address from
192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.254, with subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
The username is super, and the password is sp-admin. Refer to the
Outdoor Access Point User Guide for informaon on conguring and
operang the AP. This document is available at hps://
