1 Using the mounting bracket as a guide, choose a location where it is feasible to place the AP’s
center. The location must allow the LAN cables to come out of the wall within the large rectangular
hole. Place the bracket against the wall. (The captive screw will be used to lock the AP in place.)
Decide which two holes to use to mount the bracket. We recommend using the two holes at the top
and the bottom center of the opening. At a minimum, use two holes on opposite sides of the large
center opening.
2 Mark the two hole centers.
3 For drywall/plasterboard walls, drill two holes using a 1/4” or 6mm diameter drill bit.
4 For drywall/plasterboard walls, screw the plastic anchors into the wall first and then insert the
screws into the anchors.
5 Insert the bracket over the screw heads and slide the bracket. Ensure that both screws get attached
to the bracket.
6 Tighten the screws to secure the bracket in its place. Torque the screw to 9.0 in-lbs.
7
Connect the LAN/power to the AP
.
8
Attach the AP to the mounting bracket.
Connecting the AP to the Network
Connect the building wire LAN 1 wire ( at or PoE af) to the black RJ-45 connector using short
patch cables. Alternatively, you can connect the pass-through cable to the blue connector (top) on the
back of the AP.
Mounting the AP to the Bracket
After you attach the bracket to a wall or junction/gang box and connect the LAN/power, attach the AP
to the bracket.
1 Stuff any extra GE1 cable into the wall/box.
2 Keep the
bracket
at an angle and insert the two tabs at the top of the bracket into the AP.
3 Rotate the AP on the tabs and wait for it to clip to the other side of the bracket. The other side of the
bracket is on the bottom of the AP where the cable enters.
