Lightning and ESD Protection
Use a shielded CAT5e (or above) cable with an integrated
grounding wire for connection.
Before mounting EAP, you should consider Lightning and ESD
Protection to ensure safety.
Proper grounding is extremely important for outdoor devices.
There are two effective techniques for grounding the outdoor
EAP:
Option A
Option B
If you have the standard CAT5e cable for the connection, use a
separate grounding cable to connect the grounding Terminal
(GND) to earth ground.

Option 1: Pole Mounting
Loosen and completely remove the
end of the metal strap by turning the
captive screw counterclockwise
with a flathead screwdriver.
Step 1:
Lead the end of the metal strap
through the back of the EAP.
Step 2:
Position the EAP and wrap the metal
strap around the pole. Feed the end
back through the screw-block and
turn the screw clockwise to tighten
the metal strap using a flathead
screwdriver until the EAP is secure.
Step 3:
Connect the antennas to the EAP.
Step 4:

Option 2: Wall Mounting
Step 4:
Connect the antennas to the EAP.
Step 1:
Place the mounting bracket in the
position you require. Mark three
positions for the screw holes .
Drill three 6mm (in diameter) holes
at the marked positions.
Step 2:
Insert the plastic wall anchors into
the 6mm holes. Align the bracket
to the plastic wall anchors and
drive the self-tapping screws into
the anchors through the bracket.
Step 3:
Align the mounting tabs on the
back of the EAP with the four slots
of the mounting bracket. Push and
slide the EAP downward until it
locks into place.

Connect Cables
Firmly grasp the rear of the interface
cover and pull it downward.
Step 1:
Use an adequate Ethernet cable to
connect the LAN port. The length of
cable is up to 60m for steady power
supply. Shielded CAT5e (or above)
cable with an integrated ground wire
is recommended.
Step 2:
Affix the waterproof rubber insert to
the underside of the device for
waterproofing and replace the cover
until it firmly locks into place.
Step 3:

Ethernet cable length up to 60m

Connect the EAP to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter as
follows:
Power On
Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN device (a computer,
router or switch) to the LAN port on the PoE adapter.
Step 3:
Connect the power cord to the power port on the PoE adapter
and plug it into an electrical outlet.
Step 2:
Connect the Ethernet cable from the EAP to the POE port of the
PoE adapter.
Step 1:
PoE LAN

To quickly set up a wireless network connection with mass EAPs,
please follow the steps below.
Note:
The IP address of the management host must be reachable for the EAPs in the
network. In this example, the management host is in the same LAN with the EAPs.
For More Configurations
Now you can manage your wireless network and view network
statistics using the EAP Controller. Please refer to the EAP
Controller User Guide to learn more information about
conguring and using the Controller software.
Step 1: Installing the EAP Controller
On the management host, download the EAP Controller
installation file from the product support page at
www.tp-link.com. Run the file and follow the wizard to install the
EAP Controller.
Step 2: Configuring the EAP Controller
Launch the EAP Controller and follow the configuration wizard to
create a primary wireless network. After the wizard is finished, a
login screen will appear. Enter the Admin name and password
you created and click Sign In.
Step 3: Adopting the EAP devices
