4. Mounting the LWN602WA  
When you mount the LWN602WA, you can adjust the orientation to vertical for optimum radio transmission. For example, you  
can mount the LWN602WA on a non-penetrating roof stand or to a Winegard bracket, often used for mounting satellite dishes.  
The mounting bracket accommodates poles with a 1" to 3.5" (2.5 cm to 8.9 cm) diameter.  
To provide unobstructed RF coverage, mount the LWN602WA in a relatively open area. At a minimum, mount it on a pole, mast,  
of flat surface so that the antennas have at least a three-foot clearance from any nearby obstructions.  
After checking that you have all the materials and tools necessary, and familiarizing yourself with the safety and site hazard  
warnings, you are ready to mount the unit. You can mount the LWN602WA on a vertical or horizontal pole, or attach it to a flat  
surface. These options are described below. The device and mounting accessories required for mounting the LWN602WA are  
shown in Figure 2.  
Figure 2. LWN602WA mounted on a vertical pole with major devices and accessories called out.  
NOTE: For best performance, deploy LWN602WA devices at least 100 feet (30.4 m) apart from each other.  
4.1 PoE Connections  
In most cases, you can connect an Ethernet cable directly from your LWN602WA to a PoE-enabled switch, or to a PoE injector  
inside the building (see Figure 2). If you are not using a PoE-enabled switch, you must connect to an intermediary PoE injector,  
then to your switch (see Figure 13). In cases where your LWN602WA is located a significant distance from the building, you can  
install an outdoor waterproof PoE injector, available separately (contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 or info@  
blackbox.com for details).  
4.2 Vertical Pole Mount  
The following steps explain how to mount the LWN602WA on a vertical pole:  
1. Attach the plane bracket to the back of the unit using the hex bolts, lock washers, and flat washers. Tighten the bolts with a  
socket or nut driver.  
2. Mount the base bracket to the plane bracket using the round-head screws, lock washers, and flat washers. Tighten the screws  
with a crosshead screwdriver.

4.4 Flat Surface Mount  
The following steps explain how to mount the LWN602WA on a flat surface. You will need the plane bracket and the four  
sleeve-bolt assemblies.  
1. Use the plane bracket as a template to mark the location of the mounting holes on the surface.  
2. Drill a 516” (8 mm) hole to a depth of 1.5" (38 mm) into each mark.  
3. Remove the nuts and washers and hammer the unthreaded end of a sleeve-bolt assembly into each hole. Make sure the  
slotted end of the sleeve goes into the wall. Be sure to leave a minimum of 3/8” (9.5 mm) of the threaded bolt protruding  
from the front of the wall.  
NOTE: If you are not installing the device on a concrete wall, you can use 2" (5 cm) threaded screws and plastic wall anchors (not  
supplied) to mount the device.  
Figure 8. Installing the base and plane bracket.  
4. Place a lock washer and flat washer on each of the four hex screws and use the screws to attach the plane bracket to the back  
of the LWN602WA, as shown in Figure 3.  
5. Place the holes in the plane bracket over the mounting bolts and attach the unit using a hex nut, lock washer, and flat washer  
on each bolt to tighten the unit to the surface. As you tighten the nuts, the flanges on the back of the bolt sleeve will expand  
in the hole, securing the device in place.

5. Attaching External Antennas  
Once you have grounded your LWN602WA, you are ready to connect the antennas.  
NOTE: It is extremely important to properly ground your device to complete your installation.  
The omnidirectional antennas are available from Black Box (contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 or  
[email protected] for details).  
These antennas fit the N-type antenna connectors on the top and bottom of the LWN602WA. The two connectors on the bot-  
tom of the unit are for the 2.4 GHz antennas, and the two on the top of the unit are for the 5-GHz antennas (device and anten-  
nas are labeled).  
To connect the antennas, screw them onto the antenna connectors by hand, turning them clockwise until tight.  
NOTE: You do not need to use a tool to tighten the antennas or apply self-amalgamating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) tape  
around the threads of the connectors to create a waterproof seal.

7. Connecting to the Network  
The final step to the installation is to connect the LWN602WA to the network so that it can form a Control and Provisioning of  
Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) connection to SmartPath EMS, as shown in Figure 13.  
After you cable the LWN602WA to an Ethernet network and it is receiving PoE power, it automatically attempts to get its  
network settings through DHCP and contact SmartPath EMS. The process typically takes about five minutes to complete. If you  
see the LWN602WA listed on the Monitor > Access Points > SmartPath APs page in the SmartPath EMS GUI, the initial setup is  
complete, and you can begin managing the LWN602WA through SmartPath EMS.  
Figure 13. Connecting the LWN602WA to the network.  
7.1 Connecting to SmartPath EMS  
By default, an LWN602WA acts as a DHCP client, and gets its network settings automatically from a DHCP server. (You can also  
configure it with static network settings through the CLI. See "Using the Virtual Access Console" in Section 7.2.)  
After an LWN602WA has its network settings, it then acts as a CAPWAP client and sends CAPWAP Discovery messages until  
SmartPath EMS, acting as the CAPWAP server, responds. CAPWAP is a protocol that access points use to contact and communi-  
cate with a management device.  
When an LWN602WA goes on-line for the first time without any specific CAPWAP server configuration entered manually or  
received as a DHCP option, it progresses through the cycle of CAPWAP connection attempts shown in Figure 14.

SmartPath Enterprise Wireless Access Point, Outdoor Installation Guide  
(a) The LWN602WA tries to connect  
to SmartPath EMS using the default-  
domain name  
(b) If the DNS server cannot  
resolve the domain name to an IP  
address, the LWN602WA broad-  
casts CAPWAP Discovery messag-  
es on its local subnet. If SmartPath  
EMS is on the local network and  
responds, they form a secure  
CAPWAP connection.  
“smartpath.<local_domain>, where  
<local_domain>” is the domain  
name that a DHCP server supplied to  
the LWN602WA and 12222 is the  
UDP port number. If a DNS server has  
been configured to resolve that  
domain name to an IP address, the  
LWN602WA and SmartPath EMS  
then form a secure CAPWAP  
(c) If the first two searches for a  
local SmartPath EMS produce  
noresults, the LWN602WA tries to  
contact SmartPath EMS Online at  
redirector.blackbox.com:12222. If  
the Black Box redirection server  
has a serial number for that  
LWN602WA in its ACL, it  
responds and they form a secure  
CAPWAP connection. If the  
LWN602WA cannot make a  
CAPWAP connection to  
connection on Port 12222.  
If the LWN602WA cannot make a  
CAPWAP connection to SmartPath  
EMS on Port 12222, it tries to reach it  
by using TCP Port 80:  
smartpath.<local_domain>:80.  
Figure 14. Connecting to SmartPath EMS.  
SmartPath EMS Online on UDP  
Port 12222, it tries to reach it on  
TCP Port 80. If this is unsuccessful,  
the LWN602WA returns to the  
initial search through a DNS  
lookup and repeats the cycle.  
If an LWN602WA forms a CAPWAP connection with the redirection server and its serial number or MAC address has been  
assigned to a previously created VHM, to a physical SmartPath EMS appliance, or to a SmartPath EMS Virtual Appliance, the  
redirection server automatically redirects the CAPWAP connection to that SmartPath EMS instance. The redirection server does  
this by sending the LWN602WA the SmartPath EMS domain name or IP address as its new CAPWAP server. If the LWN602WA is  
currently using HTTP and it will be redirected to a SmartPath EMS Online VHM, the redirection server also sends it the configura-  
tion needed to continue using HTTP. Similarly, if the LWN602WA is accessing the network through an HTTP proxy server, the  
redirection server also saves those settings on the LWN602WA so it can reach the SmartPath EMS Online VHM using HTTP  
through the HTTP proxy server.  
If the redirection server must redirect the LWN602WA to a standalone SmartPath EMS appliance or SmartPath EMS Virtual  
Appliance, then you must configure the connection settings on the redirection server that you want it to push to the LWN602WA  
to make that connection. The LWN602WA first uses whatever settings are configured on it to reach the redirection server, which  
might be on the other side of an HTTP proxy server or firewall that only permits outbound HTTP traffic. Then the redirection  
server might supply the LWN602WA with different settings so that the LWN602WA can reach a standalone SmartPath EMS  
instance, which might be on the same side of the HTTP proxy server or firewall as the LWN602WA and therefore requires  
different connection parameters.  
If the LWN602WA serial number or MAC address is in the redirection server but the VHM has not yet been created or the con-  
nection settings of the standalone SmartPath EMS have not yet been configured on the redirection server, then the LWN602WA  
remains in the redirection server. The SmartPath EMS admin must manually reassign it later to the appropriate SmartPath EMS.

7.2 Using the Virtual Access Console  
An LWN602WA connected directly to the network is called a portal. You can also place an LWN602WA within radio range of a  
portal so that it forms a wireless link through the portal to the wired network. If the LWN602WA forms a CAPWAP connection  
with the Black Box redirection server and its serial number has been entered in an ACL, the redirection server automatically  
redirects the CAPWAP connection to the corresponding SmartPath EMS Online VHM (virtual SmartPath EMS). The redirection  
server sends the LWN602WA the SmartPath EMS domain name of the IP address as its new CAPWAP server and the name of the  
appropriate VHM. If the LWN602WA is currently using HTTP, the redirection server includes the configuration needed for the  
LWN602WA to continue using it. Similarly, if the LWN602WA is configured to access the public network through an HTTP proxy  
server, the redirection server saves the relevant settings on the LWN602WA so it will continue using the HTTP proxy server when  
connecting to SmartPath EMS.  
If the redirection server does not have the LWN602WA serial number, the ACL ignores the CAPWAP connection attempts, and  
the LWN602WA repeats the connection cycle shown in Figure 15.

8. Deployment and Configuration Tips  
This section contains tips and suggestions to help you troubleshoot any problems you might experience when you set up your  
LWN602WA.  
• If the client fails to authenticate to an SSID using a PSK (preshared key), check that the PSK on the client matches that on the  
LWN602WA and reset one or both keys if necessary.  
• If you manage the LWN602WA through SmartPath EMS Online and it does not show up on the Monitor > Access Points >  
SmartPathAPs page, do the following:  
- Check if the LWN602WA serial number is listed in the ACL on the Black Box redirection server. Log in to  
Smartpath.blackbox.com, and then click Redirector > Monitor > SmartPath AP Access Control List. If the serial number is not  
in the ACL, click Enter, type the serial number in the SmartPath AP Serial Number field, and then click “Save.” When done,  
reboot the LWN602WA.

SmartPath Enterprise Wireless Access Point, Outdoor Installation Guide  
- Check connectivity to SmartPath EMS Online:  
ping redirector.Black Box.com  
capwap ping redirector.Black Box.com  
- Ensure that any intervening firewalls allow one of the following sets of services from the LWN602WA to SmartPath EMS  
Online:  
CAPWAP (UDP 12222), SSH (TCP 22), and HTTPS (TCP 443)  
or  
HTTP (TCP 80) and HTTPS (TCP 443)  
• If a wireless client cannot form an association with an SSID, check that it is within range and is configured to use the same  
authentication method as the SSID. For example, if the client is configured to use Open or WEP authentication but the SSID is  
set for WPA or WPA2, the client will not be able to associate with the LWN602WA. To see the security settings for an SSID, click  
Configuration > SSIDs > ssid_name > Advanced Access Security Settings, and look at the SSID access security type, the key  
management method, and the encryption method.  
• If the client associates and authenticates itself, but the LWN602WA cannot forward traffic, check that the LWN602WA is  
assigning the correct user profile, and if so, that it is also assigning the correct VLAN. To see the user profile and VLAN that an  
LWN602WA assigns to a client, log in to SmartPath EMS, click Monitor > Clients > Active Clients > client_mac_address. Check  
the user profile attribute and VLAN. If they are correct, then check that the client has received its network settings through  
DHCP. To check connectivity to a DHCP server, click Tools > VLAN Probe, choose the LWN602WA with which the client is  
associated from the SmartPath AP drop-down list, and enter IDs for the VLAN range that you want to check. Click Start to send  
a DHCP DISCOVER message, and see if it elicits a response. Also check that the VLAN configuration for the port on the  
connecting switch is correct.  
To remove all settings and return the configuration to its factory default settings, enter the reset config command or use a pin to

press the Reset button on the chassis and hold it down for at least 10 seconds.  
9. Ethernet Protector  
In most cases, you can connect an Ethernet cable directly from the LWN602WA to a PoE-enabled switch or PoE injector  
(LPS001A-J) inside the building. In some cases, you might need to install an outdoor waterproof PoE injector, available separately  
(contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 or [email protected] for details).  
The LWN602WA and outdoor PoE injectors have built-in surge protection to guard against lightning strikes. However, the network  
where the Ethernet cable enters the building requires protection as well. To prevent the indoor network from power surges  
caused by lightning, place an Ethernet protector (indoosr: AL-CAT6JTW; outdoors: HGLN-CAT6JT) inline between the LWN602WA  
and the rest of the network.  
Figure 16. Adding lightning arrestors.  
1. Attach the Ethernet protection device to the building at the entry point of the shielded Ethernet cable from the LWN602WA.  
2. Make the following connections:  
• Ground the device by running a wire from the grounding stud to a grounded object, such as a water pipe, gas pipe, or  
grounding rod.  
• Connect the shielded Ethernet cable from the LWN602WA to the port labeled "Line Side," and connect another Ethernet cable  
from the port labeled "Equipment Side" to the network.
