Cisco Meraki MR70, Installation Manual

Page: 9 / 13

Wall or Solid Ceiling Mount Using Mount Cradle
Using included wall anchors and screws, attach the mount cradle to your mounting wall or ceiling. It is
recommended that the MR70 be mounted to a wall or solid ceiling using the mount cradle for physical security
reasons.
Pole Mount Using Mount Cradle
Use mounting straps (not included) to secure the mount cradle to a pole. Thread the mounting straps through the
mounting strap slots to secure the mount plate in a horizontal or vertical orientation. Vertical orientation is
recommended for optimal RF coverage.
Connect Access Point to Ethernet and/or AC Adapter
Using a phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws that secure the Ethernet cover. Ensure that the Ethernet cable
(and power cable, if applicable) is properly secured in the black cable gland. Secuire the Ethernet cover with the phillips
head screwdriver.
Mount the MR70
Attach the MR70 to the Mount Cradle
(This section applies to wall and/or solid ceiling where you have already installed the mount cradle.)
The MR70 attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the MR70, and is secured to the
cradle using one screw.
To attach the MR70 to the mount cradle properly, line up the top edge of the AP with the top tab of the mount cradle.
Since the cradle is already mounted to the wall, guide the MR70 towards the top tab and insert the top tab into the
MR70’s slot.
Then, adjust the MR70 to guide the MR70’s bottom slot into the cradle’s bottom tab until it clicks into place. Once in
place, the MR70 should be secured to the cradle by using one of the included screws in the cradle’s bottom tab.
