6 These antennas are supported on the 2602E: Internal Antennas The 2602I model access points are configured with up to four dual-band inverted-F antennas and two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios. There are four antennas d eployed inside the access point with one deployed on each corner of the access point top housing.
7 6 Access Point Ports and Connectors The 2602E model access points have external antenna connectors and the LED indi ctor on the top of the model, as shown in Figure 1 .
8 Figur e 2 Access P oint LED Indicator (top) The ports and connections on the bottom of the access point are shown in Figure 3 . Figur e 3 Access P oint P orts and Connecti ons (bot tom) 1 LED indica.
9 7 Configuring the Access Point This section describes how to connect the access point to a wireless LAN controller . Because the configuration process takes plac e on the controller , see the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Configuration Guide for additional information.
10 Note Y ou cannot edit or query any ac cess poin t using the controller C LI if the name of the a ccess point contains a space. Note Make sure that the controller is set to the curren t time.
11 Preparing the Access Point Before you mount and deploy your access point, we recommend that you perform a site survey (or use the site planning tool) to determine the be st location to install your access point. Y ou should have th e following information about y our wireless network available: • Access point locations.
12 Performing a Pre-Instal lation Configuration The following procedures ensure th at your access point installati on and initial op eration go as expected. A pre-installation configuration is also known as priming the access point . This procedure is optional.
13 Step 1 Make sure that the Cisco wireless LAN controller DS port is connected to the network. Use the CLI, web-browser interface, or Cisco WCS procedures as described in the appropriate Cisco wireless LAN controller guide.
14 Note The 2600 series acce ss point requires a Gigibit Ethernet link to p revent the Ethernet port from becoming a bottleneck for traffi c because wireless traffi c speeds exceed transmit speeds of a 10/100 Ethernet port.
15 8 Mounting the Access Point Cisco Aironet 2600 series access points can be mo unted in severa l configurations, including on a suspended ceiling, on a hard ceiling or wall , on an electrical or network b ox, and above a suspended ceiling.

18 Troubleshooting the Ac cess Point Join Process Access points can fail to join a controller for many reasons: a R ADIUS auth orization is pending; self-signed certificat es are not enabled on the cont roller; the access point’ s and controller’ s regulatory domains don’ t match, and so on.
19 Controller software enables you to configure the a cce ss points to send all CAPW AP-related errors to a syslog server . Y ou do not need to enable any de bu g commands on the controller be cause all of the CAPW AP error messages ca n be viewed from the syslog server itself.
20 • The access point is still connected to the same cont roller , and a specific syslog serv er IP address has been configured for the access point on the controller using the config ap syslog host specific Cisco_AP syslog_server_IP_address command.
