Installing the Antenna
Step 4
Disassemble the spacers by pushing on its tabs (1) using your thumb and forefinger.
Step 5
Raise the ceiling tile off the T-rail and position both pieces of the spacer on the T-rail (callout 1), one
part on one side and the other on the opposite side. Make sure the ON arrows on the spacer parts point
towards each other as shown above. The OFF arrows will point away from each other.
Step 6
Position the spacers so that each one is centered over the index marks you made in Step 2.
Step 7
Use a small standard screwdriver to tighten the two set screws on the spacers and secure the spacers to
the T-rail. Do not overtighten the set screws.
Step 8
Connect the antenna cable to the access point or extender cables.
Step 9
Lower the ceiling tile onto the T-rail. Depending on the width of the T-rail, you may have to squeeze the
tile to make it fit onto the T-rail.
Installing the Antenna on a Channel Ceiling T-Rail
To install the antenna on a recessed dropped ceiling requires using the two channel ceiling adapters
included in the mounting kit. These adapters attach to the channel ceiling T-rail and must be
disassembled before you can attach them.
