UNIVERGE WL Access Point (External-Antenna) Quick Installation Guide

Note that the UNIVERGE WL System supports Antenna Sectorization, which can 
be used to increase the number of clients and/or client throughput in a given air 

space. Installers can mount two UNIVERGE WL APs back-to-back and the 
UNIVERGE WL System operator can disable the second antenna in both 
UNIVERGE WL APs to create a 360-degree coverage area with two sectors.
The UNIVERGE WL APs can be mounted in one of four configurations:

•

Ceiling Mount Base

 

•

Ceiling-Mount Clips

 

•

Projection Wall Mount

 

•

Flush Wall Mount

 

Ceiling Mount Base

Ceiling Mount  Base

When you are mounting the UNIVERGE WL AP in the middle of a ceiling (flat 
sides toward the room or hallway), use the ceiling-mount base to mount the 

UNIVERGE WL AP as shown in the following figure and as described below:

Figure - 

Assembling the UNIVERGE WL AP and Ceiling-Mount Base

•

Copy the MAC address(es) from the label(s) on the UNIVERGE WL AP 
onto the corresponding location on the map. MAC addresses have the 

format 000B85xxxxxx.
