Hardware
See the Quick Start Guide for hardware installation and connections.
Grounding
Earth grounding helps protect against lightning and interference.
*The power installation must be performed by qualified service personnel and should conform to the National Electrical Code.
The Zyxel Device must be connected to earth ground to adequately ground the Zyxel Device and protect the operator from electrical hazards.
Qualified service personnel must confirm that the protective earthing terminal of the building is a valid terminal.
Before connecting the ground, ensure that a qualified service personnel has attached an appropriate ground lug to the ground cable.
1 Remove one of the ground screws from the Zyxel Device’s rear panel.
2 Secure a green/yellow ground cable (18 AWG or smaller) to the Zyxel Device’s rear panel using the ground screw.
3 Attach the other end of the cable to the ground, either to the same ground electrode as the pole you installed the Zyxel Device on or to the main grounding electrode of the building.
*Follow your country's regulations and safety instructions to electrically ground the Zyxel Device properly. If you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available, contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician.
Warning! Connect the ground cable before you connect any other cables or wiring.
Zyxel Device Models With Single LEDs
The LEDs of some Zyxel Device models can be controlled by using the suppression feature such that the LEDs stay lit (ON) or OFF after the Zyxel Device is ready. Some Zyxel Device models also have Locator LED which allows you to see the actual location of the Zyxel Device among several devices in the network. See Zyxel Device Product Feature Comparison to check which models support these features. Refer to Overview for the LED Suppression and Locator menus in standalone mode.

Connect the port to a router, a switch, or another access point (AP) to connect the Zyxel Device to the backbone of your network.
LAN
Connect computers or other Ethernet devices to Ethernet ports for Internet access.
CONSOLE
You can use the console port to manage the Zyxel Device using CLI commands. You will be prompted to enter your user name and password. See the Command Reference Guide for more information about the CLI.
When configuring using the console port, you need a computer equipped with communications software configured to the following parameters:
• Speed 115200 bps
• Data Bits 8
• Parity None
• Stop Bit 1
• Flow Control Off
RESET
Press the button for more than 5 seconds to return the Zyxel Device to the factory defaults.
POWER
Connect the power adapter and press the ON/OFF button to start the Zyxel Device
WBE510D
Place the Zyxel Device with the ports facing you and the bottom at the top.
The following are the items on the ports panels for your Zyxel Device.

Ways to Reset a Zyxel Device without a Reset Button
You can use the following ways to reset a Zyxel Device without a reset button to its factory default settings.
ZON Utility
1 Open the ZON Utility and click the Clear and rescan icon to scan for the Zyxel Device you want to reset.
 
2 Select the device and click the Reset Configuration to Default icon.
 
3 Enter the administrator password in the Password field on the pop-up screen and click OK to start the reset.
 
 
Web Configurator of the Zyxel Device Gateway
You can use this method if the Zyxel Device is connected to a Zyxel Switch with a Neighbor Reset function.
1 Log into the Zyxel switch’s Web Configurator. Go to Monitor > Neighbor, and then click the Restore button to reset the Zyxel Device to its factory default settings.
 
 
2 A pop-up window asks you to confirm that you want to reset the Zyxel Device to factory default. Click OK to proceed with reset. A count down starts.
 
Nebula Control Center
If your Zyxel Device is registered with NCC, you can unregister it to reset it to its factory default settings.
1 Go to Organization-wide > License & inventory > Devices tab in the NCC portal.
2 Select the Zyxel Device you want to remove, then click Actions > Remove from organization.
 
3 Click the Yes button to confirm.
 
PoE
Power Over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that allows Ethernet cables to supply power and transmit data simultaneously through a single Ethernet cable. You can use PoE when the Zyxel Device is hard to reach a power outlet or to simplify cabling.
The following example shows a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) supplying power and transmitting data to the Zyxel Device, along with other Powered Devices (PDs) such as an IP camera and an IP telephone.
PoE Example Application - PSE
The following example shows a PSE using a PoE Extender (PoEE) to supply power and transmit data to the Zyxel Device, along with other PDs such as an IP camera and an IP telephone.
PoE Example Application - PSE with PoE Extender
The following example shows the PoE Injector (PoEI) delivering power from the power outlet and transmitting data from the non-PoE (NPoE) device to the Zyxel Device.
PoE Example Application - PoE Injector
To view the Zyxel Device’s supported PoE standards, see Zyxel Device Product Feature Comparison. Use Ethernet cables that correspond to the PoE standard your Zyxel Device supports (see PoE Standards).
PoE standards are:
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet + (PoE+)
IEEE 802.3bt Power over Ethernet ++ (PoE++)
