Installing AP400
11
1.
Using the holes on the mounting bracket itself as a guide, mark the location on the wall for the AP
bracket mounting screws. If possible, center the mounting screws on a wall stud. (If mounting on
a wall stud is impossible, use plastic wall anchors on the remaining screws.)
2.
Orient the AP400 horizontally so that you can read the Meru logo without tilting your head at 90
degrees - this orientation provides optimum MIMO performance.
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.
6.
Mount the bracket on the screws, placing the circular portion of the keyhole mounts over the screw
heads and sliding the bracket down.

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the switch and the other end to the AP400 Ethernet port.

If you are not using a PoE device, connect an external power supply to the power connector and
plug it into the wall.
Caution!
Be sure to connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port; the cable can
mistakenly be plugged into the Console port. If you do this, the AP won’t power up.
