Wireless Area Controller (WAC2-POE)
3. Power the Wireless Area Controller (WAC).
• The WAC is a PoE powered device. Using either the included Cat5e Ethernet cable or user provided Cat5e cable connect the
WAC to the user provided PoE switch.
• If the installed location does not provide PoE switches the WAC can be powered by a 120V to PoE injector accessory. This
requires a standard 120V receptacle located within 3ft (0.9m) of the WAC. Connect the provided Cat5e Ethernet cable
from the WAC to the 120V to PoE injector then connect another Cat5E cable from the PoE injector to the building network
LAN. Ethernet cable runs must be less than 300 feet (91 meters).
4. Document the IEEE address found on the bottom of the WAC on the site floor plans.
5. Connect to building network
6. Create Construction Group
7. Finalize programing using the WaveLinx Pro Mobile App
• See WaveLinx Pro Mobile Application user manual for more information
Where to Mount the WAC
• Typically installed above the drop ceiling or high on the wall in the center of the space it will be controlling
• The WAC should be located so it has a good line-of-sight with its communicating devices
• Within 300ft (91m) of the PoE switch or building LAN connection point
• At least 10ft (3m) away from the building WiFi access points
• At least 15ft (5m) away from concreate or metal structures
Where NOT to Mount the WAC
• Inside a metal enclosure or near large metal objects or walls
• Inside or near large concreate walls or spaces
• Do not mount inside electrical closet
