Installation Notes

December 2005

Before Getting Started

Select a location as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area. 
The service location should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of 
interferences. Normally, the higher you place an access point or air monitor, the 
better its performance will be.

Use the following specifications to determine the proper clearance in your 
intended location.

The AP 65 dimensions (HxWxD) are:

With antenna stowed: 

100mm x 100mm x 37mm 

3.94 x 3.94” x 1.47”

With antenna fully extended:

167mm x 100mm x 37mm
6.58” x 3.94” 1.47”

AP 65 unit weight is:

0.227 kilos 
0.5 lbs

Secure Wall Mounting

The AP-65-MNT mounting cradle can be used to mount the AP 65 directly to a 
wall, ceiling, underneath a counter, or similar flat surface. Two screw holes on the 
mounting cradle support installation of the cradle directly onto a pre-installed, 
in-wall, NEMA-style gang box.

To mount the AP 65 to a wall, ceiling, or similar flat surface:

1.

Insert the Fast Ethernet (FE) cable through the hole in the mounting cradle, 
then attach the mounting cradle to the surface using the appropriate 
fasteners (not included) or the screw holes on the in-wall gang box.

If necessary, attach an RJ-45 male connector to the FE cable. 

2.

(Optional) Align and attach the AP security T-bar to the AP 65 as shown (see 

Figure 1

).

The security T-bar deters theft of the AP 65 when installed in areas where 
security cannot be guaranteed. It is not required for mounting the AP 65.

3.

Insert the FE connector into the FE port.

4.

Align the AP 65 with the mounting slots as shown in 

Figure 1

. Push the AP 

onto the mounting tabs to secure the AP 65 in place.

5.

If you are using the security T-bar, secure the T-bar to the mounting cradle 
with the security T-bar screw.
