Step 3: Preparing Mounting Locations
•
If necessary, drill holes for the various cables where they can be mostly hidden from casual view. When you are
mounting the WLAN Access Port (2230/2231) using a projection-mount L-bracket (the one with two long legs) the
cables can be routed through the 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) holes in the bracket.
•
Route the CAT-5, optional power supply, optional external antenna cable(s), and optional Kensington MicroSaver
Security cables to where they can plug into the WLAN Access Port (2230/2231). Make sure to leave about 6 inches
(15 cm) of slack in the cables for future modifications.
•
Attach the brackets to the wall or ceiling, or install screws for ceiling-mount base:
-
Where you are going to use the projection-mount or flush-mount bracket, use customer-supplied sheet metal,
drywall, or other screws to attach the bracket to the ceiling or wall.
-
Where you are going to use the ceiling-mount base, install customer-supplied sheet metal, drywall, or other
screws with 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) or smaller heads protruding from the ceiling about 0.1 inch (2.5 mm).
You are now ready to install the WLAN Access Ports (2230/2231). Continue with
