Combo Port
A pair of combo port consists of an optical Ethernet port and an electrical
Ethernet port on the panel. Each combo port matches only one internal
forwarding port. A combo port is a multiplexing port, and you can use either the
optical port or electrical port at one time. When one of the Ethernet ports is used,
the other port is disabled.
You can configure a combo port as an electrical or optical port using the combo-port
command. By default, a combo port works in auto mode.
The port mode is determined as follows:
● If the optical port has no optical module installed and the electrical port has no network
cable connected, the port type depends on which port is connected first. If the electrical
port is connected by a network cable first, the electrical port is used for data switching. If
the optical port has an optical module installed first, the optical port is used for data
switching.
● If the electrical port has a network cable connected and is in Up state, the electrical port is
still used for data switching even when the optical port has an optical module installed.
● If the optical port, no matter in Up or Down state, has an optical module installed, the
optical port is still used for data switching even when the electrical port has a network
cable connected.
● If the optical port has an optical module installed and the electrical port has a network
cable connected, the optical port is used for data switching after the device restarts.
Console Port
The console port is connected to an operation terminal for on-site configuration.
The port must use a console cable. To configure the device after the first power-
on, log in to the device through the console port. Table 1-2 lists attributes of a
console port.

Read and follow all the safety cautions and instructions on the chassis or
described in this document to protect personal and equipment safety during
installation, operation, and maintenance.
WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE items in this document do not cover all the
safety cautions and are only supplementary to the safety cautions.
Installation and maintenance personnel must be trained to perform operations
correctly and safely.
In case of fire, immediately leave the building or equipment deployment site and
press the fire alarm button or call the fire department. Never enter the building
on fire again in any situation.
● Before performing any operation on a device, wear ESD clothing and ESD
gloves or an ESD wrist strap. Remove conductive objects like jewelry and
watches.
● After installing the device on the cabinet/rack, connect the ground cable to the
chassis before any operations on the chassis and remove the ground cable only
after you remove all the other components and cables from the chassis.
Environmental Safety
● Keep the device away from water or damp to prevent damages to circuits.
● The device heats during operation. The installation site must be well ventilated
to ensure normal operation of the device.
Electric Safety
Laser Safety
● Invisible laser beams will cause eye damage. Do not look into open optical
ports without eye protection.
● After unplugging an optical fiber, cover the fiber connectors with dust caps.
Mechanical Safety
● Wear gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges when you are moving the
chassis.
● Before carrying a heavy object, use appropriate tools to protect yourself from
bruise or sprain.
● Before pulling the chassis out of the cabinet, check whether there are any
unstable or heavy objects on the cabinet. Be careful not to make the objects
fall, which may cause body injuries.
● Do not drill holes on a cabinet without permission. Unqualified holes on a
cabinet affect the electromagnetic filter performance of the cabinet and cause
damages to the cables in the cabinet. In addition, metal scraps may fall into
the cabinet when you are drilling holes, causing short circuit on printed circuit
boards (PCBs).
The devices are used indoors. The requirements for the installation site are as
follows:
● The devices must be installed in a clean, dry, well ventilated site with stable
temperature. The installation site must be free from leaking or dripping water,
heavy dew, and humidity.
● Dustproof measures must be taken in the site. Dust will cause static charges
on the chassis and affect connections of metal connectors and joints. This
shortens service life of the device and may cause failures of the device.
● The temperature and humidity in the site must be within acceptable ranges.
For the operating temperature and relative humidity ranges required by the
devices, see Physical Parameters in Device Structure. If the relative humidity
exceeds 70%, use dehumidifiers or air conditioners with dehumidification
features.
● There are no acidic, alkaline, or other corrosive gases in the installation site.
● There should be sufficient space around the device for heat dissipation. Leave
at least 50 mm clearance at two sides and rear of the device.

Port Description
Combo Port
A pair of combo port consists of an optical Ethernet port and an electrical
Ethernet port on the panel. Each combo port matches only one internal
forwarding port. A combo port is a multiplexing port, and you can use either the
optical port or electrical port at one time. When one of the Ethernet ports is used,
the other port is disabled.
You can configure a combo port as an electrical or optical port using the combo-port
command. By default, a combo port works in auto mode.
The port mode is determined as follows:
● If the optical port has no optical module installed and the electrical port has no
network cable connected, the port type depends on which port is connected first. If
the electrical port is connected by a network cable first, the electrical port is used for
data switching. If the optical port has an optical module installed first, the optical port
is used for data switching.
● If the electrical port has a network cable connected and is in Up state, the electrical
port is still used for data switching even when the optical port has an optical module
installed.
● If the optical port, no matter in Up or Down state, has an optical module installed, the
optical port is still used for data switching even when the electrical port has a network
cable connected.
● If the optical port has an optical module installed and the electrical port has a
network cable connected, the optical port is used for data switching after the device
restarts.

WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE items in this document do not cover all the
safety cautions and are only supplementary to the safety cautions.
In case of fire, immediately leave the building or equipment deployment site and
press the fire alarm button or call the fire department. Never enter the building
on fire again in any situation.
● Before performing any operation on a device, wear ESD clothing and ESD
gloves or an ESD wrist strap. Remove conductive objects like jewelry and
watches.
● After installing the device on the cabinet/rack, connect the ground cable to the
chassis before any operations on the chassis and remove the ground cable only
after you remove all the other components and cables from the chassis.
Environmental Safety
● Keep the device away from water or damp to prevent damages to circuits.
● The device heats during operation. The installation site must be well ventilated
to ensure normal operation of the device.
Electric Safety
Laser Safety
● Invisible laser beams will cause eye damage. Do not look into open optical
ports without eye protection.
● After unplugging an optical fiber, cover the fiber connectors with dust caps.
Mechanical Safety
● Wear gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges when you are moving the
chassis.
● Before carrying a heavy object, use appropriate tools to protect yourself from
bruise or sprain.
● Before pulling the chassis out of the cabinet, check whether there are any
unstable or heavy objects on the cabinet. Be careful not to make the objects
fall, which may cause body injuries.
● Do not drill holes on a cabinet without permission. Unqualified holes on a
cabinet affect the electromagnetic filter performance of the cabinet and cause
damages to the cables in the cabinet. In addition, metal scraps may fall into
the cabinet when you are drilling holes, causing short circuit on printed circuit
boards (PCBs).
The devices are used indoors. The requirements for the installation site are as
follows:
● The devices must be installed in a clean, dry, well ventilated site with stable
temperature. The installation site must be free from leaking or dripping water,
heavy dew, and humidity.
● Dustproof measures must be taken in the site. Dust will cause static charges
on the chassis and affect connections of metal connectors and joints. This
shortens service life of the device and may cause failures of the device.
● The temperature and humidity in the site must be within acceptable ranges.
For the operating temperature and relative humidity ranges required by the
devices, see Physical Parameters in Device Structure. If the relative humidity
exceeds 70%, use dehumidifiers or air conditioners with dehumidification
features.
● There are no acidic, alkaline, or other corrosive gases in the installation site.
● There should be sufficient space around the device for heat dissipation. Leave
at least 50 mm clearance at two sides and rear of the device.

4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 1-89 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
1-90 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released when
you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors in
one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.

When determining the AP installation position, comply with the following rules:
● Try to reduce the number of obstacles, such as walls, between the AP and
user terminals.
● Place the AP far away from electronic devices that may produce radio
interference, such as microwave ovens, other APs, antennas, and other radio
communication devices. For details, see Table 2-5.
● Install the AP in a hidden position that does not affect daily lives and work of
residents.
● Install the AP in a site that is free from leaking or dripping water, heavy dew,
and humidity, and take protective measures to prevent water from flowing
into the equipment along the cable.
● Do not install the AP in an environment with high temperature, dust,
poisonous gases, flammable or explosive objects, electromagnetic interference
(from a radar station, radio station, or substation), unstable voltage, violent
shakes, or strong noise.
If antennas are embedded into APs, the deployment distance requirements on the antennas are
those on APs.
Remove the protective film on the surface before installation to prevent electrostatic discharge.
A wall for installing the device needs to meet the following requirements:
● The wall can bear the weight of four times the total weight of the device and
mounting bracket without damage. When the total weight of the device and
mounting bracket is less than 1.25 kg, the load-bearing capability of the wall must be
greater than or equal to 5 kg.
● When the tightening torx of a screw reaches 3.5 N m, the screw still properly works,
without crack or damage on the wall.
Mounting kits and expansion bolts are required to install the AP on a wall. The
procedures are as follows:
When fixing the sheet metal mounting bracket, ensure that the arrows point
56 mm

The AP is powered by either the DC power supply or PoE power supply. The two power supply
modes serve as hot standby for each other. DC power supply has a higher priority.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
● Different types of cables must be separately routed with the minimum
spacing of 30 mm and cannot be entangled or crossed. Cables should be
parallel or separated using dedicated separators.
● Bundled cables are closely arranged, straight, tidy, and undamaged.
● Cable ties are bound neatly facing the same direction, and those at the same
horizontal line must be in a straight line. Cable tie tails should be cut
smoothly and evenly.
● Labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables after they are installed.
● If the power supply is prepared separately, ensure that it meets Limited Power
Supply (LBS) requirements to prevent damage to APs due to power overload.

● If the AP needs to connect to the Ethernet,
ensure that the Ethernet cable is working
properly. If the Ethernet cable is not working
properly, for example, RJ45 connectors are
short-circuited, the AP may fail to be powered
on or fail to work. Before connecting an
Ethernet cable to the AP, use the cable test tool
to check whether the cable is qualified. If the
cable is unqualified, replace it.
NOTICE
● Do not insert a PoE input cable into the GE1/
PoE_OUT port.
● CAT5e cables or higher must be used.
● The length of a cable in the GE0/PoE_IN interface
cannot exceed 100 m.
● The length of a cable cannot exceed 40 m when the
GE1/PoE_OUT port has PoE output and cannot
exceed 100 m when there is no PoE output.
● The GE1/PoE_OUT port of an AP can provide power
output only works in 802.3at PoE mode. The output
power varies at different connection status:
● The maximum output power is 7 W when no IoT
card is connected to the AP and the USB port is
not used.
● The maximum output power is 5.5 W when only
one IoT card is connected to the AP and the USB
port is not used.
● The PoE_OUT function is automatically disabled
when two or more IoT cards are connected to the
AP or the USB port is used.
The AP is powered by either the DC power supply or PoE power supply that backs up each other.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
There is a security slot on the device. You can lock the device to an immovable
object to prevent theft. The detailed procedures are as follows:
Table 2-104 shows the items to be checked after installation is complete. For
more details, see 6.7 Installation Checklist in the appendix.

times the cable diameter.
● The ground cables must be buried underground or routed indoors and cannot
be led into the equipment room aerially.
● Both ends of the external conductor of the coaxial cable and those of the
shield layer of the shielded cable should have good electric contact with the
metal shell of the equipment they connect to.
● Ground cables must be separated from signal cables to reduce interference
between them.
There is a security slot on the device. You can lock the device to an immovable

2 Network cable ● The service network cable and PoE input cable
cannot be connected to the console port.
Otherwise, the AP may be damaged when
using PoE power supply.
● If the AP needs to connect to the Ethernet,
ensure that the Ethernet cable is working
properly. If the Ethernet cable is not working
properly, for example, RJ45 connectors are
short-circuited, the AP may fail to be powered
on or fail to work. Before connecting an
Ethernet cable to the AP, use the cable test tool
to check whether the cable is qualified. If the
cable is unqualified, replace it.
● For the supported network cable types and
length requirements, see Connecting Network
Cables.
No priorities are distinguished for DC and PoE power supply modes. The power supply backup
mode is described as follows:
● AP4051TN: DC and GE1/PoE_IN support hot standby (HSB). Two PoE channels can serve as
HSB for each other when they have the same input power type.
● AP6052DN: DC and PoE power supplies do not support HSB.
● AP7052DE: DC and GE/PoE_IN support HSB. Two PoE channels can serve as HSB for each
other when they have the same input power type.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
● Different types of cables must be separately routed with the minimum
spacing of 30 mm and cannot be entangled or crossed. Cables should be
parallel or separated using dedicated separators.
● Bundled cables are closely arranged, straight, tidy, and undamaged.
● Cable ties are bound neatly facing the same direction, and those at the same
horizontal line must be in a straight line. Cable tie tails should be cut
smoothly and evenly.
● Labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables after they are installed.

● 6-a-1 stands for the six-around-one cable bundle mode, with one cable in the center and six
cables bundled evenly around it.
● Connecting UTP network cables to 5GE interfaces poses high risks and is not recommended.
The causes are as follows:
● 802.3bz requires that the ALSNR value for alien crosstalk between network cables be
greater than 0, but the standards for CAT5E and CAT6 unshielded twisted pairs do not
specify the required ALSNR value. Therefore, such cables may not meet the crosstalk
requirement in 802.3bz, causing severe problems such as continuous packet loss.
● According the cabling specification TIA TSB-5021, using CAT5E and CAT6 cables for 5G
poses high risks.
● Currently, no clear onsite testing or evaluation method is available for checking
whether ALSNR of cables conforms to 802.3bz.
● If CAT5E and CAT6 unshielded twisted pairs do not meet the 5G requirement, you are
advised to replace them with shielded twisted pairs or reduce the rate of interfaces to 2.5G.

tightening torque for the ground bar varies according to the OT terminals used.
● M4: 1.4 N m
● M6: 4.8 N m
● M8: 12 N m
● Both ends of the external conductor of the coaxial cable and those of the
shield layer of the shielded cable should have good electric contact with the
metal shell of the equipment they connect to.
● Ground cables must be separated from signal cables to reduce interference
between them.
● Do not add any switch or fuse on the ground cable.
● Do not use another device for an electrical connection with the ground cable.
● All metal components in the shell must be securely connected to the ground
terminal.
There is a security slot on the device. You can lock the device to an immovable
object to prevent theft. The detailed procedures are as follows:
1. Fasten the cable of the security lock to an immovable object around.
2. Insert the security lock into the security slot and lock it.

higher priority.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
● Different types of cables must be separately routed with the minimum
spacing of 30 mm and cannot be entangled or crossed. Cables should be
parallel or separated using dedicated separators.
● Bundled cables are closely arranged, straight, tidy, and undamaged.
● Cable ties are bound neatly facing the same direction, and those at the same
horizontal line must be in a straight line. Cable tie tails should be cut
smoothly and evenly.
● Labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables after they are installed.

2.30.2.5.4 Removing an AP
Flip the spring clip on the mounting bracket and slip the AP towards the spring
clip. Release the spring clip until the rubber feet of the AP enter the mounting
keyholes. Remove the AP from the mounting bracket.
If a captive screw is installed, remove the screw and then follow the preceding steps to uninstall
the AP.
Figures in Figure 2-180 and Figure 2-181 show the appearance of AP7030DE and

● The AP7030DE and AP9330DN use a metal shell, which may induce lightning stroke and
surge due to improper Ethernet cable deployment. Therefore, the AP7030DE and
AP9330DN must be grounded to avoid electric shock.
● When PoE and power adapter power supplies are available, the devices are
preferentially powered by the power adapter.
● The AP9330DN can use only a 5 m or 10 m feeder and a box antenna, but cannot use a
non-Huawei feeder.
● To power an AP using a non-standard PoE adapter, ensure that the output power of the
adapter supports the maximum power consumption of the AP. Otherwise, the AP may
restart due to insufficient power.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when installing network cables
● Before connecting an Ethernet cable to the AP, use the cable test tool to check
whether the cable is qualified. If the cable is unqualified, replace it.
● Do not connect the service network cable to the console port. Otherwise, the
AP may be damaged when the PoE power supply is used.
● Before removing network cables or power cables, remove the AP from the
mounting bracket first to prevent damage to the network cables or power
cables.
● The cable cannot exceed 100 meters.
Pay attention to the following points when installing RF cables
The AP9330DN is delivered with 240 series super-flexible feeder cables whose
length is 5 m, 10 m. No feeder cables longer than 20 m are provided. The longer
the feeder cable, the weaker the signal strength within the antenna coverage
range. The cabling method in the following figure is recommended. The feeder
cable should be as short as possible. Bend radius requirements: > 30 mm.

● Ensure that the AP is correctly installed on the mounting bracket and there is at least
200 mm space above and around the AP for maintenance.
● In a scenario with heavy vibrations, tighten the AP to the mounting bracket using
M4x30 screws. This prevents the AP from falling off due to vibrations. In normal
scenarios, you do not need to install these screws.
● This mode is not applicable to the AP with external antennas (including IoT card antennas
and AP antennas).
● You need to purchase a plastic enclosure, mounting bracket, and other accessories
separately. The part number is 21242880.
● A ceiling needs to bear the weight of four times the total weight of the device and mounting
bracket without damage. When the total weight of the device and mounting bracket is less
than 1.25 kg, the load-bearing capability of the ceiling must be greater than or equal to 5
kg.
● The screws provided for ceiling-mounting of APs are 30 mm long and can be used to fix an
AP on a ceiling no thicker than 15 mm. To install APs on thicker ceilings, you need to
purchase longer screws.

2 Network cable ● The service network cable and PoE input cable
cannot be connected to the console port.
Otherwise, the AP may be damaged when
using PoE power supply.
● If the AP needs to connect to the Ethernet,
ensure that the Ethernet cable is working
properly. If the Ethernet cable is not working
properly, for example, RJ45 connectors are
short-circuited, the AP may fail to be powered
on or fail to work. Before connecting an
Ethernet cable to the AP, use the cable test tool
to check whether the cable is qualified. If the
cable is unqualified, replace it.
● For the supported network cable types and
length requirements, see Connecting Network
Cables.
● No priorities are distinguished for DC and PoE power supply modes, DC and GE/PoE_IN
support HSB.
● Two PoE channels have no priority and can serve as HSB for each other when they have the
same input power type.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Table 2-246 Network cable types supported by Ethernet interfaces and maximum
transmission distances
● 6-a-1 stands for the six-around-one cable bundle mode, with one cable in the center and six
cables bundled evenly around it.
● Connecting UTP network cables to 5GE interfaces poses high risks and is not recommended.
The causes are as follows:
● 802.3bz requires that the ALSNR value for alien crosstalk between network cables be
greater than 0, but the standards for CAT5E and CAT6 unshielded twisted pairs do not
specify the required ALSNR value. Therefore, such cables may not meet the crosstalk
requirement in 802.3bz, causing severe problems such as continuous packet loss.
● According the cabling specification TIA TSB-5021, using CAT5E and CAT6 cables for 5G
poses high risks.
● Currently, no clear onsite testing or evaluation method is available for checking
whether ALSNR of cables conforms to 802.3bz.
● If CAT5E and CAT6 unshielded twisted pairs do not meet the 5G requirement, you are
advised to replace them with shielded twisted pairs or reduce the rate of interfaces to 2.5G.
Connecting Antennas
Connect the antennas delivered in the installation accessory package of the AP to
the 2.4G/5G RF ports on the AP, tighten the nuts (with a torque of 0.8 N m), and
adjust antenna angles as required.
Do not connect the antennas delivered in the installation accessory package of the AP to 5G
antenna interfaces. Otherwise, the AP and antennas may be damaged. The 5G antenna
interfaces can be connected only to remote antennas through feeder cables.

When the WDS/Mesh function is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of its Wireless
indicator indicates the receive signal strength on the WDS/Mesh connection by default.
After you connect an AP to a WDS/Mesh network, you can run the wifi-light { signal-
strength | traffic } command on the AC to specify whether the Wireless indicator blinking
frequency indicates the receive signal strength or service traffic rate.wifi-light signal-
strength:
● If the Mesh function is enabled on the AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless
indicator reflects the weakest signal strength of all neighboring APs.
● If WDS is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator reflects
the strength of signals received from a WDS AP.
● If the AP works in leaf mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the strength of signals received from a middle AP.
● If the AP works in middle mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the strength of signals received from a root AP.
● If the AP works in root mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the weakest signal strength of middle APs.
wifi-light traffic: allows the Wireless indicator to reflect the service traffic volume on the
radio.
When an AP functions as a Fat AP, the Wireless indicator of the AP cannot reflect the signal
strength.

When connecting cables, take waterproof measures on the following parts: See the
corresponding cable installation guide for the detailed procedure.
● Connection joints of the feeder cable connector (if a surge protective device is used,
take waterproof measures on the connection joint of the antenna and surge protective
device as well as that of the feeder cable and surge protective device.)
● The network cable and optical fiber use waterproof PG connectors and do not need to
be wrapped using tapes.
● To power an AP using a non-standard PoE adapter, ensure that the output power of the
adapter supports the maximum power consumption of the AP. Otherwise, the AP may
restart due to insufficient power.
NOTICE
Tighten the nut of the AP's RF connector with a maximum torque of 1.2 N m.
RF cable connections
1. Antenna interfaces of the AP provide a 5 KA surge protection capability.
Generally, no additional surge protective device needs to be installed, and the
RF cables are directly connected to the antenna interfaces.
Feeder Waterproof
cable tape
RF cable waterproofing
1. Wrap a layer of PVC insulation tape around the cable connector from bottom
to top. The tape must cover the entire cable connector.
2. Wrap three-layer waterproof tape over the PVC insulation tape. Wrap the
waterproof tape from bottom to top, from top to bottom, and then from
bottom to top. Wrap each layer of tape tightly.
3. Wrap three-layer PVC insulation tape over the waterproof tape. Wrap the PVC
insulation tape from bottom to top, from top to bottom, and then from
bottom to top. Wrap each layer of tape tightly.
4. Bundle cable ties at both ends of the tape.
● When wrapping the waterproof tape, stretch the tape evenly until the tape turns twice
its original length. When wrapping the PVC insulation tape, do not stretch the tape.
● Wrap each layer of tape tightly and neatly, and ensure that each layer of tape overlaps
more than 50% of the preceding layer.
● Ensure that the side with adhesive tape is covered on the wrapped tape.
● When cutting off the cable tie, reserve an extra length of 3 mm to 5 mm.
The device can transmit upstream data over optical fibers. The optical fiber is connected to the
device using fiber connectors (purchased independently).
(1) Optical fiber (2) Support (3) Rubber ring (4) External connector shell
b. Put the rubber ring on the optical fiber and insert it into the support in
compliance with the direction indicated on the ring, as shown in the
following figure.
Ensure that the arrow on the rubber ring points to the support.
4. Remove the sealing cover of the optical fiber port on the device and insert the
optical fiber into the port. Turn the support to find the correct optical fiber
installation slot and push the support forward (together with the rubber ring)
until the optical fiber is installed to the correct position. Rotate the external
connector shell clockwise until the red ring is not visible, as shown in the
following figure.
NOTICE
● Connect the optical fiber correctly; otherwise, the optical fiber may be
damaged.
● Bundle the optical fibers with binding tapes every 1 m.

Actually, APs use shielded straight-through network cables, which are connected in the
same way as unshielded network cables.
3. Put the network cable through waterproof PG connectors. Connect the RJ45
connector to the ETH/PoE interface on the AP and secure the waterproof PG
connector. See figures b, c, and d.
a b c d
a b c d
● Ensure that the RJ45 connector is correctly connected to the AP. Otherwise, the
network cable may be damaged. Before removing the network cable from the AP,
remove the waterproof PG connector first and then remove the RJ45 connector.
● The cable cannot exceed 100 meters.
● If a PoE adapter is used in outdoor scenarios, it must be installed in a waterproof
box.
● Tighten the component b of the PG connector to the AP with a tightening torque
of 2.5 N m, and the component d to the component b with a tightening torque of
1.8 N m.
● The waterproof PG connector adapts to a network cable with a diameter of 6.8
mm.
Grounding is a key step in device installation. The ground cable of a device must
be correctly connected to protect the device from lightning, electromagnetic
interference, and electrostatic charges. Outdoor APs support built-in surge
protection on all interfaces, but the surge protection works only when the outdoor
APs are grounded.
Connecting the
ground bar
Two types of outdoor antennas are available: directional outdoor antenna and
omnidirectional outdoor antenna. Omnidirectional antennas can be directly
installed on APs.
● If there is no parapet around the roof, fix the pole on the ground or a
concrete bed with expansion screws and steel wires, and then fix the
directional outdoor antenna on the pole with an antenna support.

Fault Description
The SYS indicator of a device is off.
Possible Causes
● The power sourcing equipment does not support the PoE function or is faulty.
● The power sourcing equipment does not support the required power supply
mode.
● The power sourcing equipment does not provide sufficient power.
● The power sourcing equipment is incorrectly configured (the PoE function is
disabled or the power-off time range is improperly set).
● The line is faulty (the network cable or distribution frame is damaged).
● The device is faulty.
Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Check whether the power sourcing equipment supports PoE or is faulty.
2. Check whether the power output mode of the power sourcing equipment is
supported by the powered device.
3. Check whether the peer switch is grounded. If not, ground it properly.
4. Check whether the power sourcing equipment can support the maximum
power consumption of the device.
5. Check whether the configuration on the power sourcing equipment causes
PoE power supply errors, such as the PoE function is disabled or the power-off
time range is incorrectly set.
6. Check whether the network cable or distribution frame is faulty.
7. If the device still cannot be powered on, the device itself is faulty. Contact
technical support personnel or Huawei agent and ask them to replace the
device.
The output power of an 802.3af PSE port is 15.4 W, that of an 802.3at PSE port is 30 W, and
that of an 802.3bt PSE port is 60 W.
Fault Description
After an optical interface is connected to a remote device through an optical fiber,
its LINK indicator is off.
Possible Causes
● The optical fiber is faulty.
● The optical module on the optical interface cannot meet the requirements.
● There are four combo interfaces GE0/0/21, GE0/0/22, GE0/0/23 and GE0/0/24 on the
main control board of the AC6605, and the four interfaces function independently.
● There are two combo interfaces GE0/0/7 and GE0/0/8 on the main control board of
the AC6005, and the two interfaces function independently.
Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Replace the optical fiber and optical module and check whether the optical
interface can turn Up. Ensure that the optical module meets the following
requirements.
2. Determine optical module attributes.
– The optical module has passed Huawei certification.
– The transmission speed of the optical module is the same as the interface
speed.
– Check whether the wavelength of the optical module is the same as that
of the remote optical module.
– The transmission distance of the optical module is suitable for the actual
distance between the two devices.
If the combo interface type is electrical interface, run the combo-port auto or
combo-port fiber command to configure it as auto or optical interface.
If the interface type is set to auto, check that the electrical interface is not Up. If the
electrical interface is Up, remove the network cables and then install the optical module.

Context
Never look directly into an optical module or the ends of optical fibers. Optical
modules and connected fibers emit laser radiation that will cause eye damage.
NOTICE
● Use optical modules certified for Huawei. Using other optical modules may
affect service stability and Huawei can accept no liability for the outcome.
● Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damages to fiber connectors.
● Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components. Take ESD protection
measures when replacing optical modules.
● If an optical module cannot be completely inserted into an optical port, turn
the optical module over (180 degrees) and try again.
Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is
grounded and in a close contact with your wrist.
2. Record the location of each optical fiber on the old optical module and check
whether the labels on the optical fibers are correct and clear. If any labels are
unclear, replace them and ensure that the details are correct.
3. Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber
connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the
optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with dust caps.
The locking clip varies on different fiber connectors.
– Figure 3-18 shows the locking clips on an LC/PC connector. Hold down
the locking clips when pulling the optical fibers.
– Figure 3-19 shows the locking clip on an MPO connector. The locking clip
is released automatically when you pull the MPO connector.
– Figure 3-20 shows the locking clip on an SC/PC connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the SC/PC connector.
4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 3-21 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
3-22 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released when
you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors
in one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.
Follow-up Procedure
If the new optical module does not work, contact the equipment supplier or local
maintenance personnel for technical support.

● The AP8050DN has no antenna ports, and requires no radio cable connection.
● When connecting cables, take waterproof measures on connection joints of the feeder
cable connector. (If a surge protective device is used, take waterproof measures on the
connection joint between the antenna and surge protective device as well as that
between the feeder cable and surge protective device.) Use waterproof PG connectors
for the network cable and optical fiber, without the need to wrap the cables with tapes.
For detailed waterproof measures, see the corresponding cable installation guide for the
detailed procedure.
● To power an AP using a non-standard PoE adapter, ensure that the output power of the
adapter supports the maximum power consumption of the AP. Otherwise, the AP may
restart due to insufficient power.
● To facilitate installation, you are advised to install the network cables first and then the
ground cable and antennas.
NOTICE
Tighten the nut of the AP's RF connector with a maximum torque of 1.2 N m.

RF cable waterproofing
1. Wrap a layer of PVC insulation tape around the cable connector from bottom
to top. The tape must cover the entire cable connector.
2. Wrap three-layer waterproof tape over the PVC insulation tape. Wrap the
waterproof tape from bottom to top, from top to bottom, and then from
bottom to top. Wrap each layer of tape tightly.
3. Wrap three-layer PVC insulation tape over the waterproof tape. Wrap the PVC
insulation tape from bottom to top, from top to bottom, and then from
bottom to top. Wrap each layer of tape tightly.
4. Bundle cable ties at both ends of the tape.
● When wrapping the waterproof tape, stretch the tape evenly until the tape turns twice
its original length. When wrapping the PVC insulation tape, do not stretch the tape.
● Wrap each layer of tape tightly and neatly, and ensure that each layer of tape overlaps
more than 50% of the preceding layer.
● Ensure that the side with adhesive tape is covered on the wrapped tape.

its LINK indicator is off.
Possible Causes
● The optical fiber is faulty.
● The optical module on the optical interface cannot meet the requirements.
● The optical attenuator used cannot meet the requirements.
● A combo interface is used but the interface type is not set to optical interface.
● There are four combo interfaces GE0/0/21, GE0/0/22, GE0/0/23 and GE0/0/24 on the
main control board of the AC6605, and the four interfaces function independently.
● There are two combo interfaces GE0/0/7 and GE0/0/8 on the main control board of
the AC6005, and the two interfaces function independently.
Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Replace the optical fiber and optical module and check whether the optical
interface can turn Up. Ensure that the optical module meets the following
requirements.
2. Determine optical module attributes.
– The optical module has passed Huawei certification.
– The transmission speed of the optical module is the same as the interface
speed.
– Check whether the wavelength of the optical module is the same as that
of the remote optical module.
– The transmission distance of the optical module is suitable for the actual
distance between the two devices.
If the combo interface type is electrical interface, run the combo-port auto or

Context
Never look directly into an optical module or the ends of optical fibers. Optical
modules and connected fibers emit laser radiation that will cause eye damage.
NOTICE
● Use optical modules certified for Huawei. Using other optical modules may
affect service stability and Huawei can accept no liability for the outcome.
● Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damages to fiber connectors.
● Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components. Take ESD protection
measures when replacing optical modules.
● If an optical module cannot be completely inserted into an optical port, turn
the optical module over (180 degrees) and try again.
Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is
grounded and in a close contact with your wrist.
2. Record the location of each optical fiber on the old optical module and check
whether the labels on the optical fibers are correct and clear. If any labels are
unclear, replace them and ensure that the details are correct.
3. Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber
connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the
optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with dust caps.
The locking clip varies on different fiber connectors.
– Figure 3-38 shows the locking clips on an LC/PC connector. Hold down
the locking clips when pulling the optical fibers.
– Figure 3-39 shows the locking clip on an MPO connector. The locking clip
is released automatically when you pull the MPO connector.
– Figure 3-40 shows the locking clip on an SC/PC connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the SC/PC connector.
4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 3-41 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
3-42 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released when
you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors
in one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.
Follow-up Procedure
If the new optical module does not work, contact the equipment supplier or local
maintenance personnel for technical support.

frequency indicates the receive signal strength or service traffic rate.wifi-light signal-
strength:
● If the Mesh function is enabled on the AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless
indicator reflects the weakest signal strength of all neighboring APs.
● If WDS is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator reflects
the strength of signals received from a WDS AP.
● If the AP works in leaf mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the strength of signals received from a middle AP.
● If the AP works in middle mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the strength of signals received from a root AP.
● If the AP works in root mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the weakest signal strength of middle APs.

When determining the AP installation position, comply with the following rules:
● Do not install the AP in the place with high temperature, dust, noxious gas, or
unstable voltage, or in the place near flammable or explosive materials and
interference sources such as a large radar station, radio station, and
transformer station.
● Place the AP far away from electronic devices that may produce radio
interference, such as other APs, antennas, and other radio communication
devices. For details, see Table 3-39.
● Install the AP in a hidden position that does not affect daily lives and work of
residents.
● Make the engineering design by fully considering such factors as hydrology,
geology, earthquake, electric power, and traffic. The selected site should
comply with the environment design specifications of communications
equipment.
If antennas are embedded into APs, the deployment distance requirements on the antennas are
those on APs.
Remove the protective film on the surface before installation to prevent electrostatic discharge.
A wall for installing the device needs to meet the following requirements:
● The wall can bear the weight of four times the total weight of the device and
mounting bracket without damage.
● When the tightening torx of a screw reaches 12 N m, the screw still properly works,
without crack or damage on the wall.
Mounting kits and expansion bolts are required to install the AP on a wall. The
procedures are as follows:
● When fixing the sheet metal mounting bracket, ensure that the arrows point upwards on the
label.
● When installing the device on the mounting bracket, ensure that arrows on the mounting
bracket point upward and the device logo is upside up.
● The angle-adjustable mounting bracket for the AP8050TN-HD supports a vertical and

Network cable
Optical fiber
● When connecting cables, the network cable and optical fiber use waterproof PG
connectors and do not need to be wrapped using tapes.
● To power an AP using a non-standard PoE adapter, ensure that the output power of the
adapter supports the maximum power consumption of the AP. Otherwise, the AP may
restart due to insufficient power.
The device can transmit upstream data over optical fibers. The optical fiber is connected to the
device using fiber connectors (purchased independently).
(1) Optical fiber (2) Support (3) Rubber ring (4) External connector shell
b. Put the rubber ring on the optical fiber and insert it into the support in
compliance with the direction indicated on the ring, as shown in the
following figure.
Ensure that the arrow on the rubber ring points to the support.
4. Remove the sealing cover of the optical fiber port on the device and insert the
optical fiber into the port. Turn the support to find the correct optical fiber
installation slot and push the support forward (together with the rubber ring)
until the optical fiber is installed to the correct position. Rotate the external
connector shell clockwise until the red ring is not visible
NOTICE

Actually, APs use shielded straight-through network cables, which are connected in the
same way as unshielded network cables.
3. Put the network cable through waterproof PG connectors. Connect the RJ45
connector to the Ethernet interface on the AP and secure the waterproof PG
connector. See figures b, c, and d.
a b c d
a b c d
● Ensure that the RJ45 connector is correctly connected to the AP. Otherwise, the
network cable may be damaged. Before removing the network cable from the AP,
remove the waterproof PG connector first and then remove the RJ45 connector.
● The cable cannot exceed 100 meters.
● If a PoE adapter is used in outdoor scenarios, it must be installed in a waterproof
box.
● Tighten the component b of the PG connector to the AP with a tightening torque
of 2.5 N•m, and the component d to the component b with a tightening torque of
1.8 N•m.
● The waterproof PG connector adapts to a network cable with a diameter of 6 mm.
Grounding is a key step in device installation. The ground cable of a device must
be correctly connected to protect the device from lightning, electromagnetic
interference, and electrostatic charges. Outdoor APs support built-in surge
protection on all interfaces, but the surge protection works only when the outdoor
APs are grounded.
● Both ends of the external conductor of the coaxial cable and those of the
shield layer of the shielded cable should have good electric contact with the
metal shell of the equipment they connect to.
● Ground cables must be separated from signal cables to reduce interference
between them.
● Do not add any switch or fuse on the ground cable.
● Do not use another device for an electrical connection with the ground cable.
● All metal components in the shell must be securely connected to the ground
terminal.

Context
Never look directly into an optical module or the ends of optical fibers. Optical
modules and connected fibers emit laser radiation that will cause eye damage.
NOTICE
● Use optical modules certified for Huawei. Using other optical modules may
affect service stability and Huawei can accept no liability for the outcome.
● Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damages to fiber connectors.
● Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components. Take ESD protection
measures when replacing optical modules.
● If an optical module cannot be completely inserted into an optical port, turn
the optical module over (180 degrees) and try again.
Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is
grounded and in a close contact with your wrist.
2. Record the location of each optical fiber on the old optical module and check
whether the labels on the optical fibers are correct and clear. If any labels are
unclear, replace them and ensure that the details are correct.
3. Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber
connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the
optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with dust caps.
The locking clip varies on different fiber connectors.
– Figure 3-87 shows the locking clips on an LC/PC connector. Hold down
the locking clips when pulling the optical fibers.
– Figure 3-88 shows the locking clip on an MPO connector. The locking clip
is released automatically when you pull the MPO connector.
– Figure 3-89 shows the locking clip on an SC/PC connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the SC/PC connector.
4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 3-90 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
3-91 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released when
you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors
in one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.
Follow-up Procedure
If the new optical module does not work, contact the equipment supplier or local
maintenance personnel for technical support.

Color Status Description
When the WDS/Mesh function is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of its Wireless
indicator indicates the receive signal strength on the WDS/Mesh connection by default.
After you connect an AP to a WDS/Mesh network, you can run the wifi-light { signal-
strength | traffic } command on the AC to specify whether the Wireless indicator blinking
frequency indicates the receive signal strength or service traffic rate.wifi-light signal-
strength:
● If the Mesh function is enabled on the AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless
indicator reflects the weakest signal strength of all neighboring APs.
● If WDS is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator reflects
the strength of signals received from a WDS AP.
● If the AP works in leaf mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the strength of signals received from a middle AP.
● If the AP works in middle mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the strength of signals received from a root AP.
● If the AP works in root mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator
reflects the weakest signal strength of middle APs.
wifi-light traffic: allows the Wireless indicator to reflect the service traffic volume on the

When connecting cables, take waterproof measures on the following parts: See the
corresponding cable installation guide for the detailed procedure.
● Connection joints of the feeder cable connector (if a surge protective device is used,
take waterproof measures on the connection joint of the antenna and surge protective
device as well as that of the feeder cable and surge protective device.)
● The network cable and optical fiber use waterproof PG connectors and do not need to
be wrapped using tapes.
● To power an AP using a non-standard PoE adapter, ensure that the output power of the
adapter supports the maximum power consumption of the AP. Otherwise, the AP may
restart due to insufficient power.
NOTICE
Tighten the nut of the AP's RF connector with a maximum torque of 1.2 N m.
RF cable connections
1. Antenna interfaces of the AP provide a 5 KA surge protection capability.
Generally, no additional surge protective device needs to be installed, and the
RF cables are directly connected to the antenna interfaces.
Feeder Waterproof
cable tape
RF cable waterproofing
1. Wrap a layer of PVC insulation tape around the cable connector from bottom
to top. The tape must cover the entire cable connector.
2. Wrap three-layer waterproof tape over the PVC insulation tape. Wrap the
waterproof tape from bottom to top, from top to bottom, and then from
bottom to top. Wrap each layer of tape tightly.
3. Wrap three-layer PVC insulation tape over the waterproof tape. Wrap the PVC
insulation tape from bottom to top, from top to bottom, and then from
bottom to top. Wrap each layer of tape tightly.
4. Bundle cable ties at both ends of the tape.
● When wrapping the waterproof tape, stretch the tape evenly until the tape turns twice
its original length. When wrapping the PVC insulation tape, do not stretch the tape.
● Wrap each layer of tape tightly and neatly, and ensure that each layer of tape overlaps
more than 50% of the preceding layer.
● Ensure that the side with adhesive tape is covered on the wrapped tape.
● When cutting off the cable tie, reserve an extra length of 3 mm to 5 mm.
The device can transmit upstream data over optical fibers. The optical fiber is connected to the

● Ensure that the RJ45 connector is correctly connected to the AP. Otherwise, the
network cable may be damaged. Before removing the network cable from the AP,
remove the waterproof PG connector first and then remove the RJ45 connector.
● The cable cannot exceed 100 meters.
● If a PoE adapter is used in outdoor scenarios, it must be installed in a waterproof
box.
● Tighten the component b of the PG connector to the AP with a tightening torque
of 2.5 N m, and the component d to the component b with a tightening torque of
1.8 N m.
● The waterproof PG connector adapts to a network cable with a diameter of 6.8
mm.
Grounding is a key step in device installation. The ground cable of a device must
be correctly connected to protect the device from lightning, electromagnetic
interference, and electrostatic charges. Outdoor APs support built-in surge
protection on all interfaces, but the surge protection works only when the outdoor
APs are grounded.

Fault Description
After an optical interface is connected to a remote device through an optical fiber,
its LINK indicator is off.
Possible Causes
● The optical fiber is faulty.
● The optical module on the optical interface cannot meet the requirements.
● There are four combo interfaces GE0/0/21, GE0/0/22, GE0/0/23 and GE0/0/24 on the
main control board of the AC6605, and the four interfaces function independently.
● There are two combo interfaces GE0/0/7 and GE0/0/8 on the main control board of
the AC6005, and the two interfaces function independently.
Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Replace the optical fiber and optical module and check whether the optical
interface can turn Up. Ensure that the optical module meets the following
requirements.
2. Determine optical module attributes.
– The optical module has passed Huawei certification.
– The transmission speed of the optical module is the same as the interface
speed.
– Check whether the wavelength of the optical module is the same as that
of the remote optical module.
– The transmission distance of the optical module is suitable for the actual
distance between the two devices.
If the combo interface type is electrical interface, run the combo-port auto or
combo-port fiber command to configure it as auto or optical interface.

Context
Never look directly into an optical module or the ends of optical fibers. Optical
modules and connected fibers emit laser radiation that will cause eye damage.
NOTICE
● Use optical modules certified for Huawei. Using other optical modules may
affect service stability and Huawei can accept no liability for the outcome.
● Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damages to fiber connectors.
● Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components. Take ESD protection
measures when replacing optical modules.
● If an optical module cannot be completely inserted into an optical port, turn
the optical module over (180 degrees) and try again.
Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is
grounded and in a close contact with your wrist.
2. Record the location of each optical fiber on the old optical module and check
whether the labels on the optical fibers are correct and clear. If any labels are
unclear, replace them and ensure that the details are correct.
3. Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber
connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the
optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with dust caps.
The locking clip varies on different fiber connectors.
– Figure 3-107 shows the locking clips on an LC/PC connector. Hold down
the locking clips when pulling the optical fibers.
– Figure 3-108 shows the locking clip on an MPO connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the MPO connector.
– Figure 3-109 shows the locking clip on an SC/PC connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the SC/PC connector.
4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 3-110 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
3-111 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released
when you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors
in one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.
Follow-up Procedure
If the new optical module does not work, contact the equipment supplier or local
maintenance personnel for technical support.

● Before the installation, take ESD protection measures, for example, wear an ESD wrist strap
or ESD gloves.
● The 2.4G/5G antenna port of the AP9132DN works at the 5 GHz band by default. To enable
the port to transmit 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio signals simultaneously, run the antenna-
output command.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
● Different types of cables must be separately routed with the minimum
spacing of 30 mm and cannot be entangled or crossed. Cables should be
parallel or separated using dedicated separators.
● Bundled cables are closely arranged, straight, tidy, and undamaged.
● Cable ties are bound neatly facing the same direction, and those at the same
horizontal line must be in a straight line. Cable tie tails should be cut
smoothly and evenly.
● Labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables after they are installed.
Connecting RF Cables
Use RF cables to connect APs to antennas. The cabling requirements are as
follows:
● Before delivery, feeder interfaces of the device are covered with dust caps.
Remove the dust caps before connecting the feeder cables.
● After the device installation is complete, cover the unused feeder interfaces
with dust caps.
● The bending radius of the RF cable must be greater than or equal to ten
times the cable diameter.
To remove an RF cable, hold the QMA-J connector tightly and pull the RF cable, as
shown in the following figure.
Invisible laser beams will cause eye damage. Do not look into bores of optical
modules or connectors of optical fibers without eye protection.
Insert the optical fiber connector into the GE1 socket. The cabling requirements
are as follows:
● Optical fibers routed in a cabinet/rack must be protected by a corrugated
pipe. The bend radius of an optical fiber must be 20 times larger than its
diameter. Generally, the bend radius of optical fibers should be no less than
40 mm.
● Before connecting an optical fiber, check whether its connector is
contaminated. If so, use an air-laid cotton or a fiber cleaner to clean the fiber
connector.
● Install dust plugs on unused optical interfaces.
When connecting the M12 connector of the cable to the device, secure the nut 2
first and then screw the nut 1 clockwise with a tightening torque of 0.4 N•m.

● The optical module on the optical interface cannot meet the requirements.
● The optical attenuator used cannot meet the requirements.
● A combo interface is used but the interface type is not set to optical interface.
● There are four combo interfaces GE0/0/21, GE0/0/22, GE0/0/23 and GE0/0/24 on the
main control board of the AC6605, and the four interfaces function independently.
● There are two combo interfaces GE0/0/7 and GE0/0/8 on the main control board of
the AC6005, and the two interfaces function independently.
Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Replace the optical fiber and optical module and check whether the optical
interface can turn Up. Ensure that the optical module meets the following
requirements.
2. Determine optical module attributes.
– The optical module has passed Huawei certification.
– The transmission speed of the optical module is the same as the interface
speed.
– Check whether the wavelength of the optical module is the same as that
of the remote optical module.
– The transmission distance of the optical module is suitable for the actual
distance between the two devices.
If the combo interface type is electrical interface, run the combo-port auto or
combo-port fiber command to configure it as auto or optical interface.
If the interface type is set to auto, check that the electrical interface is not Up. If the
electrical interface is Up, remove the network cables and then install the optical module.

4. Run the display transceiver command to check whether any alarms about
the optical module have been generated. If such alarms are displayed, handle
the problem according to the alarms. For example, if an alarm shows that the
receive signal strength is too high, use an optical attenuator between the
remote optical module and the optical fiber.

Context
Never look directly into an optical module or the ends of optical fibers. Optical
modules and connected fibers emit laser radiation that will cause eye damage.
NOTICE
● Use optical modules certified for Huawei. Using other optical modules may
affect service stability and Huawei can accept no liability for the outcome.
● Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damages to fiber connectors.
● Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components. Take ESD protection
measures when replacing optical modules.
● If an optical module cannot be completely inserted into an optical port, turn
the optical module over (180 degrees) and try again.
Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is
grounded and in a close contact with your wrist.
2. Record the location of each optical fiber on the old optical module and check
whether the labels on the optical fibers are correct and clear. If any labels are
unclear, replace them and ensure that the details are correct.
3. Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber
connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the
optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with dust caps.
The locking clip varies on different fiber connectors.
– Figure 5-20 shows the locking clips on an LC/PC connector. Hold down
the locking clips when pulling the optical fibers.
– Figure 5-21 shows the locking clip on an MPO connector. The locking clip
is released automatically when you pull the MPO connector.
– Figure 5-22 shows the locking clip on an SC/PC connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the SC/PC connector.
4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 5-23 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
5-24 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released when
you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors
in one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.
Follow-up Procedure
If the new optical module does not work, contact the equipment supplier or local
maintenance personnel for technical support.

Appearance
Figure 5-26 shows the appearance of an RPS1800 power supply.
Function
The RPS1800 is a redundant power supply that ensures seamless failover if the
internal power module of a central AP fails. The RPS1800 can detect the failure of
the internal power module on a connected central AP and immediately supply
power to this switch. The switch can continue operating without a restart.
The RPS1800 has the following features:
● For AD9431DN-24X PoE central AP, the RPS1800 supports the 6:1 power cold
redundancy mode.
– If the RPS1800 has no 870 W PoE power module, it provides the same
functions for PoE central APs as it does for non-PoE central APs.
– If the RPS1800 has 870 W PoE power modules installed, it provides power
redundancy for the system and PoE power modules of PoE central APs
but does not provide PoE power supply for the central APs.
– The RPS1800 can provide PoE power redundancy for only one central AP
at a time. It requires only one 870 W PoE power module when using 220
V power input and requires two 870 W PoE power module when using
110 V power input.
The 870 W PoE power modules and RPS cables are not hot swappable.
The RPS1800 only provides power redundancy for central APs and cannot power on a
switch directly.
Application
The RPS1800 can be deployed on various networks to ensure non-stop operation
of the networks. Figure 5-27 and Figure 5-28 show different deployments of the
RPS1800.
When an RPS1800 uses the same external power supply system as the connected
central APs, it can prevent service interruption caused by failures of the central
APs' internal power modules. When an RPS1800 uses a different external power
supply system than the connected central APs, it can prevent service interruption
caused by failures of central APs' internal power modules and external power
supply system. Therefore, this deployment is more reliable.

Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Check whether the device is powered on.
2. Check that the power cable is securely connected to the device.
3. Check whether the power supply is normal.
4. If the device still cannot be powered on, the device itself is faulty. Contact
technical support personnel or Huawei agent and ask them to replace the
device.
Fault Description
After an optical interface is connected to a remote device through an optical fiber,
its LINK indicator is off.
Possible Causes
● The optical fiber is faulty.
● The optical module on the optical interface cannot meet the requirements.
● The optical attenuator used cannot meet the requirements.
● A combo interface is used but the interface type is not set to optical interface.
● There are four combo interfaces GE0/0/21, GE0/0/22, GE0/0/23 and GE0/0/24 on the
main control board of the AC6605, and the four interfaces function independently.
● There are two combo interfaces GE0/0/7 and GE0/0/8 on the main control board of
the AC6005, and the two interfaces function independently.
Troubleshooting Procedure
1. Replace the optical fiber and optical module and check whether the optical
interface can turn Up. Ensure that the optical module meets the following
requirements.
2. Determine optical module attributes.
– The optical module has passed Huawei certification.
– The transmission speed of the optical module is the same as the interface
speed.
– Check whether the wavelength of the optical module is the same as that
of the remote optical module.
– The transmission distance of the optical module is suitable for the actual
distance between the two devices.
If the combo interface type is electrical interface, run the combo-port auto or
combo-port fiber command to configure it as auto or optical interface.
If the interface type is set to auto, check that the electrical interface is not Up. If the
electrical interface is Up, remove the network cables and then install the optical module.

Context
Never look directly into an optical module or the ends of optical fibers. Optical
modules and connected fibers emit laser radiation that will cause eye damage.
NOTICE
● Use optical modules certified for Huawei. Using other optical modules may
affect service stability and Huawei can accept no liability for the outcome.
● Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damages to fiber connectors.
● Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components. Take ESD protection
measures when replacing optical modules.
● If an optical module cannot be completely inserted into an optical port, turn
the optical module over (180 degrees) and try again.
Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is
grounded and in a close contact with your wrist.
2. Record the location of each optical fiber on the old optical module and check
whether the labels on the optical fibers are correct and clear. If any labels are
unclear, replace them and ensure that the details are correct.
3. Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber
connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the
optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with dust caps.
The locking clip varies on different fiber connectors.
– Figure 5-41 shows the locking clips on an LC/PC connector. Hold down
the locking clips when pulling the optical fibers.
– Figure 5-42 shows the locking clip on an MPO connector. The locking clip
is released automatically when you pull the MPO connector.
– Figure 5-43 shows the locking clip on an SC/PC connector. The locking
clip is released automatically when you pull the SC/PC connector.
4. Remove the optical module and cover the bores with dust plugs. Store optical
module safely.
The latch varies on different optical modules. Figure 5-44 shows an optical
module with a clasp latch. To release the clasp latch, rotate it down. Figure
5-45 shows an optical module with a tab latch. The tab latch is released when
you pull it.
You can use the tweezers (part number: 63120166) to remove an optical module.
5. Take out the new optical module from the package. Ensure that the optical
module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you
hear a click.
The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical
module connected to it.
6. Identify the optical fibers to be connected to the optical module. Remove the
dust caps from the optical fibers and insert the optical fibers to the bores of
the optical module.
If the optical module does not work, use an alcohol swab to swap the fiber connectors
in one direction, and reconnect the optical fibers to the optical module.
Follow-up Procedure
If the new optical module does not work, contact the equipment supplier or local
maintenance personnel for technical support.

bracket and vertically push the AP to secure it. When the spring clip is popped
up, push the AP downward until it snaps into place (you can hear a click).
In a scenario with heavy vibrations, tighten the AP to the mounting bracket using M4x30 screws.
This prevents the AP from falling off due to vibrations. In normal scenarios, you do not need to
install these screws.
A ceiling needs to bear the weight of four times the total weight of the device and
mounting bracket without damage. When the total weight of the device and mounting
bracket is less than 1.25 kg, the load-bearing capability of the ceiling must be greater than
or equal to 5 kg.
The screws provided for ceiling-mounting of APs are 30 mm long and can be
used to fix an AP on a ceiling no thicker than 15 mm. To install APs on thicker
ceilings, you need to purchase longer screws.

The AP is powered by either the DC power supply or PoE power supply. The two power supply
modes serve as hot standby for each other. DC power supply has a higher priority.
When installing a cable, you must make a drip loop to prevent water from flowing
into devices along the cable. For the method of making the drip loop, see 6.8
Guide to Making Drip Loops.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
● Different types of cables must be separately routed with the minimum
spacing of 30 mm and cannot be entangled or crossed. Cables should be
parallel or separated using dedicated separators.
● Bundled cables are closely arranged, straight, tidy, and undamaged.
● Cable ties are bound neatly facing the same direction, and those at the same
horizontal line must be in a straight line. Cable tie tails should be cut
smoothly and evenly.
● Labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables after they are installed.
● If the power supply is prepared separately, ensure that it meets Limited Power
Supply (LBS) requirements to prevent damage to APs due to power overload.

Context
● To ensure proper contact between the crimped wires and the wire conductors,
the heights and sizes of the contact strips must be standard and the same.
● The contact strips must be parallel to each other, with an offset of less than
± 5°. The top margin of a strip must be parallel to the axis of the connector,
with an offset of less than ± 10°.
● To ensure conductivity, the surface of the contact strips must be clean.
● The contact strips must be in good contact with the RJ45 socket. The plastic
separators must remain intact and be aligned.
● The contact strip blade must extend beyond the ends of the wires. The ends
of the wires must be in contact with the edge of the RJ45. The distance
between them must be less than 0.5 mm (0.02 in.).
Procedure
Step 1 Hold the crimped connector, with the front side facing you, and check whether the
contact strips are of the same height. The height should be 6.02 ± 0.13 mm (0.237
± 0.005). If a measuring tool is not available, you can compare the connector with
a standard connector. Figure 6-79 shows an unqualified piece, and Figure 6-80
shows a qualified piece.
Step 2 Hold an RJ45 connector and turn it 45°. Observe the top edges of the metal
contact strips. Figure 6-81 shows an unqualified piece.
Step 3 Check whether the contact strips are clean. If they are not clean and the dirt
cannot be removed, replace it with a new RJ45 connector. Figure 6-82 shows an
unqualified piece.
Step 4 Check whether the contact strips and the plastic separators are well aligned and
intact. If a separator is skewed and cannot be fixed, replace it with a new RJ45
connector. Figure 6-83 shows an unqualified piece.
Step 5 Hold the connector with the side facing towards you, and check whether you can
see the cross-sections of the wires. Ensure that the ends of the wires are in good
contact with the edge of the RJ45, and that the contact strip blade extends
beyond the ends of the wires and is crimped with the wires. If not, replace the

Procedure
Step 1 Feed both connectors of the cable into the ports of the cable tester.
Step 2 After the connectors are properly inserted, turn on the tester. If the indicators from
1 to G turn on simultaneously, you can infer that the pins work normally and the
wires are correctly connected.
Turn the switch to the S position to slow down lighting of the indicators so that you can see
the indicators more clearly, as shown in Figure 6-86.
Step 3 Gently shake the connector and repeat Step 2 to check whether the metal contact
strips are in good contact with the core wires and Ethernet ports, as shown in
Figure 6-87.
The procedure for testing a crossover cable is the same as that for testing a
straight-through cable except for the sequence in which the indicators turn on,
which depends on the wire connections of a crossover cable.
The Ethernet cable is qualified if the indicators turn on in the following sequence:
At the master (left) section of the tester, the indicators turn on in the sequence of
1-8-G. At the slave (right) section of the tester, the indicators turn on in the
sequence of 3-6-1-4-5-2-7-8-G.
If the indicators do not come on in this sequence, the Ethernet cable is
unqualified.
If a tester is not available, you can use a multimeter to perform a simple test, as shown in

Follow-up Procedure
After a type N connector is made, perform the short-circuit test using a
multimeter as follows:
1. Use the multimeter to test the conductivity between signal pins of the type N
connector and signal wires of the radio cable. If they are not conductive, re-
assemble the radio cable.
2. Use the multimeter to test the conductivity between the metal shell of the
type N connector and base wires of the radio cable. If they are not conductive,
re-assemble the radio cable.
3. Test the conductivity between the metal shell signal pins of the type N
connector. If they are not conductive, re-assemble the radio cable.
4. Test the conductivity between signal wires of the radio cable and the metal
shielding ground cable. If they are conductive, re-assemble the radio cable.

1 mm x 2 mm (0.04 in. x 0.08 in.).
The word "TO:" (upside down in the figure) at the lower right corner of the label
is used to identify the opposite end of the cable on which the label is affixed.
The template is made in Microsoft Word. Follow these instructions to use the
template:
● You can modify the contents of the template. Do not change settings of
centered characters, direction, and fonts.
● If many characters need to be filled in, decrease the font size, but make sure
that the printouts are clear and legible.
If the warning prompt as shown in Figure 6-155 appears before printing, click Ignore
to continue the printing.
After the page setup has been made correctly, save it for future use. This page
setup is only necessary the first time you use the template to print the labels.
Writing Tools
To make sure the printouts are clear and legible, use black markers instead of
ball-point pens to write the labels.
If no marker is available, black ball-point pens are allowed, although not
recommended. Compared with ball-point pens, waterproof markers are better.
When writing with a ball-point pen, do not leave the oil on the label, which may
contaminate the label and blur the words.
The delivered marker has two nibs. Use the smaller nib to write the labels.
Font
For the sake of legibility, use standard block letters and numbers as shown in
Table 6-26 (Times New Roman).

Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the
right side of the cable. The side with "TO:" that is facing outside carries the
location information of the opposite end; and the other side carries the location
information of the local end.
In other words, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the
information in Area 2 at the other end of the cable.
These labels are affixed to the optical fibers that connect the optical interfaces on
the boards in a chassis, or on the device boxes. There are two types of labels for
optical cables:
● One is for the fiber that connects the optical interfaces on two devices.
● The other is for the fiber that connects the device and the ODF.

The contents of the labels for network cables connecting hubs and devices or
agents and the network cables for other purposes should be specified according to
actual connections. The details are as follows:
● For a network cable connecting a hub and device, the label on the hub end
should indicate the numbers of the chassis and cabinet where the hub resides,
and the serial number on the hub. The label on the device end should indicate
the number of the chassis and cabinet where the device is located. If the
device is a standalone device, provide the specific position of the device.
● For a network cable connecting a hub and an agent or terminal, the label on
the agent or terminal end should contain the serial number of the network
interface. The definitions of the cabinet number and chassis number are the
same as those described in Table 6-29.
● If the hub is a standalone device without a cabinet or chassis, the label should
contain specific location information that identifies the hub.
The serial number on the hub, the network interface number of the agent or
terminal, and the location of the standalone device should be specified according
to actual connections.
Label Example
Figure 6-163 shows a sample label on an Ethernet cable.

The label only carries location information about the destination direction of the
power cable whereas information about the local end is unnecessary. That is, the
label only carries location information about the opposite equipment, the control
cabinet, or the distribution box. Table 6-31 lists the information on two -48 V
power supplies on the label. The information on other DC voltages, such as 24 V
and 60 V should be given in similar methods.
Make sure that labels are affixed in the correct direction. That is, after the cable
ties are bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should
face up, and the text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same
direction. For details, see Figure 6-165.
In the power distribution box or the first power cabinet of a row in a transmission
equipment room, every terminal block on the -48 V connector bar has a numeric
identification. For example, in the above label of "A01/B08--48V2", "08" (or sometimes "8")
is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
PGND and BGND are two copper bars, on which the terminal blocks are short-
circuited. Therefore, it makes no difference which terminal is connected to them. It
is only necessary to give the row and column of the power distribution box,
instead of giving the specific serial number of the terminal block on the copper
bar. For example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is "A01-BGND", it means
that the power cable is a BGND that connects BGND copper bar in the power
distribution box in row A, column 01 in the machine room. Information on the
labels for PGND cables should be given in a similar way.
The labels for AC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates
on cable ties. For details, see Table 6-32.
MN-(B)-ACn MN: serial number of the cabinet or the socket where the
power is led in
B: chassis number, numbered in bottom-up order with two
digits, for example, 01.
n: power port number, numbered as 1 to 3 in bottom-up and
left-to-right order.
Serial number of the socket where the power is led in: the
location of the socket is marked according to the actual
situation. If the sockets can be identified by row numbers and
column numbers, they can be numbered following the same
rule for the cabinets. If the sockets cannot be identified by
rows and columns, specify the detailed locations to avoid
confusion with other sockets.
The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment and the
power socket; information about the local end is unnecessary.
Make sure that labels are affixed in the correct direction. That is, after the cable
ties are bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should
face up, and the text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same
direction, as shown in Figure 6-166.

The system may fail to obtain information about non-Huawei-certified optical modules or
obtain incorrect information. You are advised to use Huawei-certified optical modules. Obtain
the electronic label of the optical module and contact technical support personnel to confirm
whether it is a Huawei-certified optical module.
Place at least three cleaning tissues on the work bench. As shown in Figure 6-168,
wipe the end of an optical connector from left to right or from right to left on a
cleaning tissue, and then move the connector end to the unused part of the cleaning
tissue to continue.
2. Cover an unused optical module with a protective cap to prevent dust, as
shown in Figure 6-169.
4. If a receptacle or an optical connector has not been used for a long time and
is not covered with a protective cap, you need to clean it before using it. Clean
a receptacle with a cotton swab, as shown in Figure 6-172. Clean an optical
connector with cleaning tissues.
NOTICE
When cleaning a receptacle, insert the cotton swab and turn it slowly in the
receptacle. Do not use too much strength because the receptacle may be
damaged.
5. If optical signals are lost during the operation of a device, use the preceding
method to clean the receptacle or the optical connector. In this manner, the
possibility of contamination can be excluded.
Precautions
1. The optical connector should be vertically inserted in the receptacle to avoid
damages to the receptacle.
2. Fibers must be inserted into optical modules of the corresponding type. That
is, multimode fibers must be inserted into multimode optical modules, and
single mode fibers must be inserted into single mode optical modules. If a
fiber is inserted into an optical module of a different mode, faults may occur.
For example, optical signals will be lost.

Context
A console cable can connect a PC to an AC. Connect the RJ45 connector of the
cable to the console port of the AC, and connect the DB9 connector to the serial
port of the PC. You can connect the PC to the AC through the console cable. This
section uses PuTTY as an example to illustrate how to log in to the device through
the console port.
Procedure
Step 1 Connect the console port of the AC to the COM port of a PC through console
cables.
A PC may have multiple connection interfaces; therefore, the interface connected through
the console cable is selected in this example. Generally, COM1 is selected.
If the console port communication parameters of the device are modified, modify the
communication parameters on the PC accordingly (ensure that the parameter values are
the same) and re-establish the connection.
When you log in to the AC6800V through the console port, set the baud rate to 115200.
After the connection is complete, enter the login password and press Enter, and
you can enter commands to configure or manage the device. On the first login,
you have to reset the password.
The password value is a string of case-sensitive characters. It must contain at least two
types of characters, including upper-case and lower-case letters, digits, and special
characters. For details, see the information printed in the screen.
