Configuration et installation
Follow these steps to properly set up and install your EnGenius PoE Adapter:
- Montage: Choose a suitable location for the adapter, preferably near a power outlet and your network equipment. Use the included hardware to mount the adapter securely to a wall or ceiling. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device.
- Connecter l'entrée réseau : Connectez un câble Ethernet de votre commutateur réseau ou routeur au Réseau local port sur l’adaptateur PoE.
- Sortie PoE à connecter : Connectez un autre câble Ethernet à partir du PoE port on the adapter to the compatible EnGenius outdoor access point or other PoE-powered device. This cable will carry both data and power.
- Connecter l'alimentation : Plug the power cord into the adapter's power input and then into a standard electrical outlet. The PWR indicator light on the adapter should illuminate, indicating that the unit is receiving power.
- Vérifiez la connexion : Once all connections are made, verify that the connected EnGenius device is powered on and functioning correctly.
Mode d'emploi
The EnGenius EPA2406GR operates automatically once connected and powered. It provides continuous data and power to the connected PoE device.
- Indicateur d'alimentation (PWR) : A solid light indicates that the adapter is receiving power.
- PoE Indicator (PoE): This light indicates that power is being supplied to the connected PoE device.
- LAN Indicator (LAN): This light indicates active data connection to your network.
- Bouton de réinitialisation : The reset button is located on the PoE injector. Pressing this button will initiate a reset of the connected EnGenius device. This is particularly useful for remote devices that are difficult to access physically. Consult your connected device's manual for specific reset procedures (e.g., short press for reboot, long press for factory reset).
