Mount AP433i & 433is below a Suspended Ceiling
The brackets on the bottom of the AP433i allow it to be mounted directly to a ceiling T-
bar (see
Figure 24, Mounting AP433i & 433is to a Suspended Ceiling Rail
). Note that
the AP lock must be disabled by sliding the locking key (provided in the box) into the
unlock hole on the side of the AP shown in
Figure 23, Ports for AP433i & 433is
in order
to clip the AP in place.
Figure 24, Mounting AP433i & 433is to a Suspended Ceiling Rail
To mount an AP433i below a suspended ceiling:
•
Determine the location on the ceiling rail where the AP will be mounted
and remove the ceiling tiles.
•
Verify that the AP is unlocked using the locking key on the unlock
mechanism (on the same side as the Ethernet ports).
•
Press the AP433i against the T-bar at a slight angle and then rotate into
place, as indicated in Figure 24, Mounting AP433i & 433is to a
Suspended Ceiling Rail. You should hear it snap in place.
•
Connect one end of the PoE Ethernet cable to the AP’s Ethernet port
(see Figure 25, Ports of AP433i & 433is)

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.
