Powering the Access Point

The DWL-8620AP can be powered using

one of the following methods:

• (Optional) Connect the supplied power

adapter.

• Use a standard Ethernet cable to

connect LAN port 1 on the DWL-8620AP

to a PoE power source device such as a

PoE switch or PoE injector.

Hardware Installation Connecting through a switch or router:

Connect the access point and the computer

to the same switch or router. If the access

point did not acquire an IP address from

a DHCP server on the network, enter the

default IP address of the access point

10.90.90.91 in the address eld of your

browser. If the access is automatically

assigned an IP address by a DHCP server

on your network, enter the IP address

assigned to the access point into the web

browser. To log in, use the default login

Conguring the Access Point

To set up and manage the DWL-8620AP,

use one of the following methods:

Direct connection to a PC:

Connect the access point and the computer

directly via a straight-through Ethernet

cable. Ensure the computer is congured

with a static IP address in the 10.90.90.0/24

subnet. Launch a web browser, type the

default IP address of the access point

(http://10.90.90.91), then press Enter.

Installation

Mounting Options

You can mount the DWL-8620AP access

point on any of the following types of

surfaces:

• Solid surface wall or ceiling

• Tabletop

Cable Requirement

Use a CAT 5 cable with an even sheath.

The Ethernet ports on the DWL-8620AP

access point cannot accept a CAT 5 cable

that has an uneven sheath; the RJ-45

connector on the cable will not fit properly into

the receptacle on the access point.

Wall Installation Recommendations

If you plan to install the DWL-8620AP on a

wall or other vertical surfaces, orient the top

of the access point (the side with the LEDs)

toward the intended coverage area. The

radio antennas transmit through the top of

the access point but not through the bottom

(where the bracket is).

insert the plastic wall anchors.

3. Use the supplied screws to attach the

mounting ring to the wall.

Warning: The DWL-8620AP is designed

to receive PoE power only from an 802.3at-

compliant source or from a D-Link-approved

power adapter. Connecting an access point

to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device that

is not approved by D-Link can damage the

equipment.

Warning: This product is to be connected

only to indoor PoE networks with no outdoor

cable routing.

• Connecting through a Unied

Wireless Switch or Wireless

Controller: Connect the access point

to a Unied Wireless Switch or Wireless

Controller. Connect your computer to

the same network as that of the Unied

Wireless Switch or Wireless Controller.
