carrier’s network device.

3. Connect the AP power adapter (or PoE power supply) to the

AP, and then to a convenient power source.

Mounting Instructions

Mounting on a Flat Surface

The factory-supplied mounting screws and plastic wall anchors

allow you to attach the AP to a wall or other flat surface.

1. Use the Mounting Template on the last page of this Quick

Setup Guide to mark the locations for two drill holes on the

mounting surface.

2. Use a 4.75mm (3/16”) drill bit to drill holes approximately

25mm (1”) deep into the mounting surface.

3. Insert the factory-supplied anchors and mounting screws

into the mounting surface, leaving approximately 6 mm

(1/4”) of the screw heads protruding for the AP enclosure.

4. To remove the AP, insert the unit removal pin into the hole

on the top of the AP to unlock, then push the AP up to

release the AP enclosure from the mounting screws.

FIGURE 3  Flat surface mounting

Mounting on a Drop-Ceiling T-Bar

NOTE: This mounting bracket can also be used on a flush

drop-ceiling T-bar, so the four rubber feet on the bottom of

the AP minimize ceiling tile displacement.

The enclosed T-bar bracket allows you to attach the AP to

recessed drop-ceiling T-bars.

Mounting an AP using the External Bracket

1. Position the studs on the bottom of the T-bar bracket (B in

the Figure below) in the mounting holes on the AP enclosure,

and then slide the T-bar bracket until the studs are in the

narrow parts of the AP mounting keyholes. The mounting

bracket locks in place on the AP enclosure.

FIGURE 4  Attaching the T-bar bracket to the AP

2. Attach the locking tab (C) to one side of the T-bar and the

bracket (B) to the other side of the T-bar.

3. Slide the locking tab (C) into the bracket (B) so that it locks in

place around the T-bar (Figure below). Make sure that both

clasps are gripping the T-bar.
