Step 9 If required, plug the power adapter into the electrical outlet.
What to do next
Do one of these:
• Base station installation:
• Manual configuration: Sign into the Administration Web Page and Configure the Base Station
• Automatic configuration: Sign into the Administration Web Page and Start Handset Registration
• Repeater installation: Add a Repeater
Mount the Base Station or Repeater on a Desk
You can place the base station or repeater on a desk or other horizontal surface (for example, a book shelf).
Select a location where the base station or repeater won't be easily knocked off.
The base station and repeater have a range of up to 984 feet (300 meters) outdoors and a range of 164 feet
(50 meters) indoors.
In this task, the term device means the base station or repeater.
Before you begin
You need:
• Base station: LAN connection close to the mounting location.
• Base station: If you do not use PoE, a power outlet close to the mounting location.
• Repeater: A power outlet close to the mounting location.
• Ensure that the base station can communicate with the network (see Install the Base Station, on page
6). After it can communicate and the LED is green, you can unplug the cables if you haven't tested the
base station in the final location.
Determine the best placement, taking into account the coverage area and the building construction materials.
• If you have a 210 Multi-Cell Base Station, you may need to add additional base stations or repeaters.
• If you have a 110 Single-Cell Base Station, you may need to add 110 Repeaters.
You can use the site survey tool on the handset to plan placement.
Procedure
Step 1 Base station only: Connect the Ethernet cable to the device and route the cable through the slot in the device.
Step 2 Provide power to the device:
• Base station with PoE on the LAN: Additional power is not required.
