Antenna Interface
The AP-175 requires the use of detachable outdoor-rated antennas. Select the correct antenna type to
support the required frequency band (2.4 or 5 GHz) and the desired coverage pattern.
support the required frequency band (2.4 or 5 GHz) and the desired coverage pattern.
The AP-175 is equipped with four, female N-type antenna interfaces; two on the top of the AP and two on
the bottom. The interfaces are grouped into diversity pairs, one pair is marked R0 (Radio 0) and the other
pair marked as R1 (Radio 1). R0 supports the 5 GHz frequency band and R1 supports the 2.4 GHz radio
band.

USB Console Interface
A USB serial console port is provided for connection to a terminal, allowing direct local management. Use
the following setting to access the terminal:

Power Interface
The type of power interface on your AP-175 depends on which model you have purchased.
z
AP-175P: This version does not include a power interface since it is only powered by PoE+ (802.3at).
z
AP-175AC: 1x AC power connector
z
AP-175DC: 1x DC power connector
Ethernet Interface
The AP-175 is equipped with a 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet port for wired network connectivity. On
the AP-175P, this port also supports IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE), accepting 48 VDC as a
standards-defined powered device (PD) from a power sourcing equipment (PSE) device, such as a PoE
midspan injector. Inversely, the AP-175AC and AP-175DC can act as a PSE device to provide IEEE802.3af
PoE power to devices connected to the Ethernet port.

Grounding Point
Always remember to protect your AP-175 by installing grounding lines. The ground connection must be
complete before connecting power to the AP-175 enclosure. Ensure that the resistance is less than 5 ohm
between the ground termination point and the grounding tier.

LED Status Indicators
The AP-175 include visual indicators for power, link, and radio status. Additionally, each radio has a four-
LED array that indicates received signal strength (RSSI).

The RSSI LED indicators represent varying degrees in the RSSI level. The absence of a signal is indicated by no
LED response, and full signal strength is indicated when all four LEDs are active and lit.
