Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Mounting the Access Point Above a Suspended Ceiling
Step 8
If needed, drill or cut a cable access hole (see
) large enough for the access point cables and
pull the cables through the access hole until you have about 1 foot of exposed cables protruding from the
hole.
To attach the access point to the mounting plate, see
“Attaching the Access Point to the Mounting Plate”
Mounting the Access Point Above a Suspended Ceiling
The access point mounting bracket is designed to be integrated into the T-bar grid above the tiles of a
suspended ceiling. The access point uses a T-bar box hanger (not supplied) such as the Erico Caddy 512
or B-Line BA12 and should be oriented just above the top surface of a standard 5/8-in. (1.59-cm) ceiling
tile. You may need to modify a thicker tile to allow room for the access point.
Caution
Only the fiber-optic power injector (AIR-PWRINJ-FIB) has been tested to UL 2043 for operation in a
building’s environmental air space; the AIR-PWRINJ3 power injector and the power module are not tested
to UL 2043 and should not be placed in a building’s environmental air space, such as above suspended
ceilings.
Caution
Cisco does not sell Ethernet cable rated for use in a building environmental air space, such as above
suspended ceilings. You must obtain special Ethernet cable with the appropriate rating.
