Installing the Access Points
2.
Mark the location on the wall for two mounting screws. They are placed 4.3"
apart, center-to-center, or one above the other. If you are not using plastic wall
anchors, you must either center the mounting screws on a wall stud or use plastic
wall anchors.
3.
Drill holes at the locations you marked:
—
3/16-inch holes if you are using plastic anchors
—
1/8-inch holes if you are using only the screws
4.
If you are using plastic anchors, install them in the holes.
5.
Screw in the screws most of the way, so that the screw head is about 1/16 of an
inch from the wall.
6.
Align the AP150 keyholes over the mounting screws and slightly pull down (or
across, if mounting sideways).
7.
For external antennas, loosen the knurled ring at the base of each antenna (see
), point the antenna straight up, then retighten the ring.
8.
Connect one end of the PoE 100BaseT Ethernet cable to the 100/1000 Ethernet
connector, shown in
Vertical Mounting with the Mounting Bracket
The AP150 uses thumbscrews to attach to the mounting bracket or mounting plate
that allows the access point to be mounted on a vertical surface. Additionally, three
shoulder screws may be installed on the mounting bracket to allow the AP150 and
attached bracket to mount over a previously installed Cisco mounting bracket or
Proxim AP4000 bracket.
To vertically mount an AP:
1.
If not mounting the AP150 to a previously third-party installed mounting bracket,
use a 1/8” Allen wrench to remove the shoulder screws from the mounting
bracket, if already attached.
2.
Using the bracket holes as a template, remove the bracket from the AP150 (or use
the stencil in Appendix , “Mounting Bracket Stencils”) to mark the location on the
wall for the two AP bracket mounting screws. They are placed 4.3 inches apart,
center-to-center. If you are not using plastic wall anchors, you must center the
mounting screws on a wall stud. If you do not center the mounting screws on a
wall stud, you must use plastic wall anchors.
