Hardware Installation
Powering the Access Point
You can use PoE (802.3at) to power the DWL-8710AP:
1. You can power the DWL-8710AP by connecting a PoE injector’s PoE-OUT to the LAN1 port (PoE-Input)
on the DWL-8710AP. Then connect the PoE injector’s LAN-IN port to an available Ethernet port on your
computer and plug in the injector’s power cord into a power outlet as shown in figure 6.
2. Alternatively, you may directly connect the LAN1 (PoE-Input) port on the DWL-8710AP to any available
PoE-capable port of an 802.3at-compliant PoE switch, as illustrated in figure 7.
Protecting the Network Ports
The DWL-8710AP’s Ethernet ports are equipped with a set of protective sealing caps designed for outdoor
use. Please refer to figure 8 for how to correctly attach and secure the Ethernet cables to the DWL-8710AP.
Mounting the AP to a Wall
The DWL-8710AP can be mounted either horizontally or vertically. However, it is recommended that the AP
is installed with the antennas positioned vertically in order to achieve optimal performance.
1. Use the mounting base plate to mark the location on the surface where you want to mount the
DWL-8710AP. Next, drill a hole of 8 mm wide and 37 mm deep on all 4 markings.
2. Remove the nut and washer from the bolts and place the bolts in the holes as shown below in figure 9.
3. Place and lock the flat washer on the cap screws and attach the mounting plate to the back of the
DWL-8710AP using the screws as illustrated in figure 10.
4. Mount the DWL-8710AP onto the bolts that were placed in the wall, then fasten the bolts’ flat washers and
nuts to secure the mounting plate with the AP to the wall surface.
5. Remove the protective caps covering the antenna ports on the AP, if any. Next, connect the 2 antennas
marked “2.4 GHz” to the designated 2.4 GHz connectors and the antennas marked “5 GHz” to the
designated 5 GHz connectors on the AP. The DWL-8710AP is now ready to be connected to the network.
Mounting the AP to a Pole
The DWL-8710AP can be mounted either horizontally or vertically. However, it is recommended that the AP
is installed with the antennas positioned vertically in order to achieve optimal performance.
1. Place the lock and flat washer on the cap screws and attach the mounting plate to the back of the
DWL-8710AP.
2. Depending on the orientation of the pole you wish to install the AP onto (horizontal or vertical), attach the
pole mounting bracket to the mounting base plate accordingly using the screws. Refer to figure 14 for the
proper position of the pole mounting bracket for each direction.
3. Thread the open end of the pole strap through the two tabs on the pole mounting bracket to secure the
strap to the mounting bracket.
