ALL

BSAPs should be positioned for maximum throughput and range between other APs and wireless client 
devices. Follow these instructions to mount the BSAP to an interior ceiling or wall using the enclosed ceiling/
wall mounting kit:
1.

Using the plastic mounting bracket as a template, mark the location to insert the screw anchors.

2.

Press the point of the screw anchors into the sheetrock at the marks and drive them into the wall using a 
Phillips-head screwdriver.

3.

Insert the long screws through the recessed holes in the plastic mounting bracket and drive them into the 
metal anchors.

4.

Drive the short screws into the metal screw receptacles on the bottom of the BSAP until they are firmly 
seated in the receptacle. If extra space is required, use the spacers and long screws provided with the T-
rail mounting hardware kit to increase the space between the unit and the mounting bracket. Leave enough 
of the long screws exposed above the spacer to ensure they can be inserted into the keyed slots on the 
mounting bracket. 

5.

Mount the BSAP on the mounting bracket by inserting the screws on the back of the BSAP into the keyed 
slots on the mounting bracket and rotating the unit clockwise 90 degrees to secure it on the bracket.

6.

Optionally, protect your BSAP with a Kensington cable lock (not provided) inserted into the security slot.

Make a note of the 12-character MAC address and serial number listed on the back of 
the BSAP 2020 Series before mounting the BSAP to a wall or other surface. This 
information will be required during configuration.
