AP 320
Using the mounting plate and track clips, you can mount the HiveAP 320 to the tracks of a dropped ceiling grid.
Using just the mounting plate, you can mount the HiveAP to any surface that can support its weight (2 lb., 0.9 kg).
Ceiling Mount
To mount the HiveAP 320 to a track in a dropped ceiling, you need the mounting plate, two track clips, and two Keps
nuts, all of which ship as an option with the HiveAP 320. You also need a screwdriver and—most likely—a ladder.
Nudge the ceiling tiles slightly away from the track to clear some space. Fasten the track clips to the mounting
plate, and then attach them to the ceiling track, as shown in
Figure 4
.

Attaching the track clips and mounting plate to the ceiling track
When you have the mounting plate in the correct location, cut or drill a hole in the ceiling through which you can
then pass the Ethernet and power cables. Pass the cables through the hole and attach them to the HiveAP 320,
leaving some slack so that you can easily maneuver the HiveAP into place, attaching it to the mounting plate as
shown in
Figure 5 on page 77
.
Note:
In addition to these methods, you can also mount the HiveAP 320 on a table using the set of four rubber
feet that ship with the product. Simply peel the rubber feet off the adhesive sheet and press them against
the underside of the HiveAP in its four corners.
Note:
For clarity, the power and Ethernet cables are not shown in the illustrations.

1
Press the clips against the ceiling
track and swivel them until they snap
into place, gripping the edges of the
track.
If necessary, slide the clips and
mounting plate along the track until
they are in the spot you want. Then
tighten the screws firmly.
Insert the screws through the
mounting plate and thread them
into the track clips, fastening
the clips loosely to the plate.
2
Adjust the track clips so that
their tabs can pass on either
side of a ceiling track.
Note: The mounting plate is depicted as
transparent to show the position of the
two screws below the holes in the plate.
