3. Mount the Access Point
After you have verified that the access point passes the self test, you are ready
to mount the access point in a stable location. The RSVLC-0501 can be
mounted in these ways:
■
on a wall
■
on a suspended ceiling T-rail
■
on a horizontal surface
Wall Mounting
You can mount the access point on a wall as shown in the illustrations on the
next page.
C a u t i o n
The access point should be mounted only to a wall or wood surface that is at
least 1/2-inch plywood or its equivalent.
1.
Position the mounting bracket on the wall, and mark the holes. The
orientation shown in the following figure is the most secure position for
mounting the access point. Do not mount the access point with its ports
and connectors pointing down.
2.
To mount the access point on a plastered brick or concrete wall, first drill
four holes 22 mm deep and 3.5 mm in diameter, and press the four included
wall plugs firmly into the drilled holes until they are flush with the surface
of the wall.
3.
Position the mounting bracket over the drilled holes, then insert the four
5/8-inch number 12 wood screws in the holes and tighten down the screws.
4.
There are four recess slots on the bottom of the access point that match
up with four protrusions on the mounting bracket, as shown in the
following figures.
Slide the access point down onto the bracket so that the four protrusions
on the bracket enter the four recess slots on the bottom of the access
point. Push the access point firmly down onto the bracket until clicks into
a locked position.
5.
To prevent unauthorized removal of the access point, you can use a
Kensington Slim MicroSaver security cable (not included) to attach the
access point to an immovable object.
