The Ray platform requires an Email ID and an Unregistered Ray device for first-time signup.
An existing Ray account holder can still provide you with access to their Ray cloud controller, even if you don’t have a Ray device of your own. They can create an account for you as a user, giving you access to manage their devices on their behalf.
AP (Access Point):
Example: Model Name (R6A-C)
Front of RAY AP (Access Point),
Back of RAY AP (Access Point)
- Ports: The back of the device typically has Ethernet ports for wired connections. These could include:
WAN port for connecting to the network or internet.
LAN ports for connecting to other devices.
- Power Input: A DC (Power Port) or PoE (Power over Ethernet) connector may be present for powering the device.
- Reset Button: There’s usually a small Reset button to restore the AP to factory settings.
Note:
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that allows Ethernet cables to deliver both data and electrical power to devices over a single network cable.
There are currently 3 major IEEE 802 power over Ethernet standards:
IEEE 802.3af commonly known as PoE
IEEE 802.3at commonly known as PoE+
IEEE 802.3bt commonly known as PoE++ (UPoE is Cisco's proprietary version of PoE++ type 3)
The table below shows the 3 different Power over Ethernet types and their respective power input and output:
| PoE | PoE+ | PoE++ | |
IEEE Standard | IEEE 802.3af | IEEE 802.3at | IEEE 802.3bt | |
PoE Type | Type 1 | Type 2 | Type 3 | Type 4 |

Connect the device to the Power Adapter (Input Voltage- 100-300v , AC- 50-60 Hz) or POE Port.
- Make sure the power adapter is securely plugged into a power source.
After powering on the AP, the indicator light will display different colors to show its status:
- RED Light: Indicates the device is receiving power from the adaptor and searching for IP Address.
Connect the RJ45 cable to the WAN/POE port on the AP.
- GREEN Light: The AP gets IP Address searching for an internet connection.
- BLUE Light: The AP has successfully connected to the internet and is ready to connect with users.
Go to the link: Ray AP LED & Status you want to know more about the AP's light.
