Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Installing Antennas
Step 4
Screw an M6 bolt into each of the four bolt holes on the back side of the access point. Do not screw the
bolt in all the way. Leave a gap of about 0.13" (3.3mm).
Step 5
Position the four bolts on the access point into the bracket keyhole slots. Check to be sure that the access
point is properly seated in the slots.(See
Figure 2-6
)
Note
The access point should be positioned with the LEDs on the bottom to allow viewing from the
ground.
Step 6
Using a 10mm wrench, tighten the four bolts that connect the access point to the bracket to a torque of
40 lbf-in.
Step 7
Locate the access point to its final position. Tighten the band clamps with the wrench so that the access
point does not slide on the pole. Ensure that the clamps are tight enough to not let the AP move.
Step 8
