point and attempt to rotate it from side to side.
If the access point comes off the bracket, relock the device onto the bracket as described in

10. If the other ends of the Cat 5 cable(s) are not already connected and the link activated, go to
“ Connecting an Access Point to the Network ” on page 2 ‐ 25. Otherwise, go to “ Verifying AP
Health ” on page 2 ‐ 26.

(For required mounting hardware and tools, see Table 2 ‐ 2 on page 2 ‐ 5.)
1. Prepare holes in the wall or ceiling for the universal mounting bracket, using the following
steps:
a. Place the paper mounting template over the location where you want to install the access
point.
b. Mark the screw hole location(s).
‐ If you plan to route the Cat 5 cable externally along the wall or ceiling, mark the
locations of both the center screw hole and the screw hole by the port connector
opening.
Caution: To prevent possible damage to the access point, make sure the device is fully locked
onto the bracket before letting go of it.
Advertencia: para evitar posibles daños al punto de acceso, asegúrese de que el dispositivo
esté completamente fijo al soporte antes de soltarlo.
Achtung: Vergewissern Sie sich stets, dass der Access Point vollständig in die Halterung
eingerastet ist, um so Beschädigungen zu vermeiden.

Note: The solid surface mounting option requires Cat 5 cable that does not have strain relief, unless
you plan to route the cable through a hole in the wall or ceiling. The other options can use Cat 5
cable with or without strain relief.
