T-Bar Fasteners and Spacers
The T-Bar fasteners included with the wireless port are designed to connect to a
range of hanging ceiling T-Bar sizes. Following the steps in Figure 6, spread the
T-Bar fastener apart, place it on the T-Bar and squeeze it together until it is
firmly seated on the T-Bar. With the two T-Bar fasteners in place and properly
spaced to match the brackets T-Bar fastener holes, determine if spacers are
needed. The T-Bar fastener spacers are designed for hanging ceilings where the
ceiling tiles' bottom surface is bellow the T-Bar. If this is the case, install the
spacer as show in the diagram. The spacer allows the universal mounting
bracket to sit below the bottom surface of the ceiling tile.
The universal mounting bracket is installed using the large wing nuts provided.
Make sure these wing nuts are tight.
WARNING!
For safety it is recommended that two T-Bar fasteners be used to connect the

on the T-Bar before installing the universal bracket and wireless port.
