Installing AP300

The calculation for 802.3at PoE use looks something like this:
(Number of AP300s * 13watts) + (sum of all other PoE devices power requirements) <= switch
power provided
Installation Requirements
An array of holes on the mounting bracket allows the AP300 to be mounted on the wall and over junc-
tion boxes or molly bolts. There are holes for passing the PoE Ethernet or external power supply cable
through the bracket if the bracket is mounted on a junction box. A template of this bracket is included
in Appendix E of this guide.
The AP300 has a security cable slot so you can lock the AP300 with a standard security cable, such as
those used to secure laptop computers.
Purchase optional mounting kits to mount the AP300 either from the ceiling or inside an enclosure:
Suspended Ceiling Rail Mounting Kit: ACC-MNT-SCRMKIT
Above Suspended Ceiling Mounting Kit (T-Bar Hanger): ACC-MNT-ASCMKIT
Inside a Hoffman Enclosure using Hoffman compatible mounting bracket: ACC-AP300-BHE (enclosure
not provided)
Above hanging ceiling tiles. Suitable for use in environmental air space in accordance with the
Section 300-22(c) of the National Electric Code and Sections 2- 128.12 - 010 (3) and 12 - 100 of the
