Quantity Item
1 AP5050U access point
1 Quick Reference Guide
The AP5050U access point can be installed under a seat, under a bench, on a wall, or
on a pole. The AP5050U Purchase Order Information on page 15 gives you more details
about choosing the right access point bracket for your installation needs.
Note
The access point has light-gray LAN cable pre-installed in the access point
glands. The light-gray gasket handles all CAT 5 and CAT 5E cables, with a cable
diameter range from 4.5mm to 6.0mm.
The access point ships with two black gaskets in the box for use with Category
6/6A (CAT 6/6A) Ethernet cables with a cable diameter from 6.0mm to 9.2mm.
This includes unshielded and shielded twisted-pair (UTP) Cat 6/6A cables. Store
these gaskets in a safe place if you do not use them right away.
Procedure
Installation Don'ts:
• Do NOT install the access point side with the user input/output facing upward or
angled upward, toward the sky.
• Do NOT install the access point or open the console cap when precipitation is falling
or is about to fall.
• Do NOT remove the gland body. If the gland body is accidently loosened, it must be
torqued immediately to 30 in-lbs.
Important
The gland body keeps precipitation from entering the access point.
Note
The access point has light-gray gaskets pre-installed in the access point
glands. The light-gray gasket handles all CAT 5 and CAT 5E cables, with a
cable diameter range from 4.5mm to 6.0mm.
The access point ships with two black gaskets in the box for use with
Category 6/6A (CAT 6/6A) Ethernet cables with a cable diameter from
6.0mm to 9.2mm. This includes shielded and unshielded twisted-pair (UTP)
Cat 6/6A cables. Store these gaskets in a safe place if you do not use them
right away.
• Do NOT let moisture, dirt, pollen, or any other debris to enter the glands or the
console.
• Do NOT get a pressure washer nozzle closer than 24 inches to the glands, console
cap, or vent.
Installation Do's:
Orientation:
• The access point can be mounted in almost any orientation.
Note
The only mounting orientation restriction is with the access point glands.
The best practice is to have the glands on the downward side to maximize
water draining away from the glands.
• The side with the glands can be horizontal, facing down (ideal position), or anything
in-between.
User I/O:
• Only the gland caps must be removed to install the ETH0 or ETH1 LAN RJ45 cable.
Torque the gland caps to 12 in-lbs.
• The LAN cables must have a minimum radius of 1 in. and a 3 in. minimum drip loop.
The loop allows gravity to carry moisture away from the glands.
• The console cap must be removed to install the micro-USB connector cable. Torque
the console cap to 15 in-lbs. The console cap must not be left open during any form
of precipitation.
• If used, torque the ground screw to a minimum of 12 in-lbs.
Warning
When installing the access point on a wall or to a pole, the cable glands must
face down.

Note
For stadium riser installations, note the following items:
◦ If the service panel base extends above the stadium riser, seal or cover
the EIO-03-SP Service panel openings to prevent material from entering.
◦ Leave approximately 1-inch between the outdoor access point bottom
and the floor. The gap will ensure that water that on the exterior surface
drips away.
◦ When you mount the AP on a riser with the metal "L" bracket only and
not with a large metal sloping bracket, it is recommended that you add
a 3mm-thick stainless steel washer between the “L” brackets and the
riser on all of the anchors. The washer provides proper drainage during
storms.
Install the EIO-04 Under-Seat Slope Bracket and the Access Point
Install the EIO-04 under seat enclosure with the AP5050U access point on a stadium
slope.
Note
When you mount the AP on a riser with the metal "L" bracket only and not
with a large metal sloping bracket, it is recommended that you add a 3mm-
thick stainless steel washer between the “L” brackets and the riser on all of the
anchors. The washer provides proper drainage during storms.
1. Using the metal sloping bracket as a template, mark and drill two holes in the
concrete.
2. Insert the anchors without the nuts and washers.
3. If using EIO-GASKETs, install the two EIO-GASKETs on the left and right side of the
access point. The two gaskets keep the area under the access point free of debris
and large objects.
4. Place the metal sloping bracket, attach the nuts and washers to the exposed
threads, and torque them to 60 in-lbs.
Attach the conduit cable through the conduit holes on the metal sloping bracket, then
attach the metal L bracket to the access point, and install the access point on a surface.
Procedure
3. Insert a blank conduit cover over the conduit hole in the slope for the conduit hole
that is not used,.
Note
If you are using a 3/4 inch NPT or 1/2 inch NPT, use the conduit cover that
comes with the unit to cover the conduit hole. If you are using 1 inch NPT
conduit, a conduit tab is not required.
Note
The conduit must be 1 in. in diameter to attach the conduit coupler and the
nut directly in the slope.
7. Repeat Step 4 for the right side if you are using the right side conduit hole in the
slope.
8. Run the cable through the conduit and add the RJ45 connectors to the wires.
Note
The cable should have a minimum of 1-inch bend radius and be accessible
to the glands on AP5050U access point.
For more information about the LAN cables refer to Connect the ETH1 or ETH0 cable
topic.
9. Attach the metal L bracket to the access point:
a. Attach the metal “L” bracket to the gland side of the AP5050U access point using
two M6 screws.
b. Torque the screws to 35 in-lbs.
Note
When installing the access point flat against a surface in a location that uses
ice melt, the best practice is to apply an anti-seize material to the screws
before attaching them to the access point metal base.
Note
When you mount the AP on a riser with the metal "L" bracket only and
not with a large metal sloping bracket, it is recommended that you add a
3mm-thick stainless steel washer between the “L” brackets and the riser on
all of the anchors. The washer provides proper drainage during storms.
What to Do Next
Install the EIO-03-SP Service Panel on an Access Point on page 49.

Install the Access Point on a Pole Using MBO-ART02 Articulating Mounting Bracket
and POLE01 Bracket
About This Task
Note
The MBO-ART02 wall mount bracket is End of Sale (EOS) as of January, 2023. It
is replaced by the MBO-ART03 bracket.
For more information, see End of Sale and End Service Life.
Attach the access point to a pole using the WS-MBO-POLE01 bracket on MBO-ART02
articulating mounting bracket.
Note
You must provide stainless-steel cable clamps. The band must be 0.5 in. (12.7
mm) wide.
Procedure
1. Attach the MBO-ART02 articulating mounting bracket to the access point using two
M6 hex-head screws.
◦ Four nuts
Note
For Unistrut installations, discard two of the short screws and nuts. Provide
two M12 stainless steel bolts, hex nuts, and split washers.
The MBO-ART03 bracket has +/- 80-degree (in 10-degree increments) 2-axis tilt and
variable 7 inches to 10 inches extension. The bracket comes installed with M6 pivot
screws.
On the MBO-ART03 bracket's flat surface, there are three large holes for interfacing
with the Unistrut metal frame. There are two smaller holes for M6 bolts for mounting to
the KT brackets or a wall also. Each metal bracket on either end of the ART03 bracket
has two bent sections with two pivot holes and serrated lock positions.
The length on the bent sections can be adjusted, if desired. Move the pivot points to
increase the MBO-ART03 bracket's extension lengths to 7.5 in. to 9.0 in., or 10.5 in.
Use a crescent wrench or a 13 mm tool to tighten the pivot screws and nuts.
5. Torque the screws and nuts to finger tightness.
Note
The access point glands should point downward to prevent water entry.
The left to right adjustment can be made to any angle, with the access point having
at least 1 in. clearance from another object.
Tip
The best practice is to make the vertical adjustment before attaching the
access point to the MBO-ART03 bracket.
Note
Close the bottom opening of the service panel when you have an access point
on a riser. Otherwise water and debris collects in the panel and shortens it's life.
Use a plastic or metal covering that's at least 0.050 inches thick.
Tip
The best practice is to use one part clear super glue and two parts epoxy
to hold the service panel cover in place. This helps provide some resistance
during pressure washing.
Note
When installing the access point flat against a surface in a location that uses
ice melt, the best practice is to apply an anti-seize material to the screws
before attaching them to the access point metal base.
Note
When you mount the AP on a riser with the metal "L" bracket only and
not with a large metal sloping bracket, it is recommended that you
add a 3mm-thick stainless steel washer between the “L” brackets and
the riser on all of the anchors. The washer provides proper drainage
during storms.
