The EAP115-Wall can only be powered by a PSE device, such as a PoE switch.
Connect the PoE switch to the UPLINK+PoE port with an Ethernet cable.
A DHCP server (typically a router) with DHCP function enabled is required to
assign IP addresses to the EAPs and clients in your local network.
Before installation, be sure that you have the following items:
1. A pre-installed wall junction box
2. An RJ45 plug
3. A triangular screwdriver
EAP115-Wall can be mounted into either an 86mm wall junction box or a
standard EU wall junction box. The junction box should be pre-installed with
a running-in-wall Ethernet cable connected to a PoE switch.

2. Detach the faceplate of the EAP with a screwdriver.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable inside the junction box to an RJ45 plug.
Then connect the cable to the UPLINK+PoE port. Position the Ethernet
cable to ensure it is not strained.
