Installation Instructions
4.1
Choose Your Mounting Location
A good mounting location is important to getting the best performance out of your MR76-HW
access point. Keep the following in mind:
1.
The device should have unobstructed line of sight to most coverage areas. For example, if
installing in an office filled with workspaces divided by mid-height cubicle walls, installing on
the ceiling or high on a wall would be ideal.
2.
Power over Ethernet supports a maximum cable length of 300 ft (100 m).
3.
If being used in a mesh deployment, the MR76-HW should have line of sight to at least two
other Meraki devices. For more detailed instructions regarding access point location selection,
reference the Meraki Network Design Guide (
meraki.com/library/product
).
4.2
Install the MR76-HW
For most mounting scenarios, the MR76-HW mount plate provides a quick, simple, and flexible means
of mounting your device. The installation should be done in two steps. First, install the mount plate to
your selected location. Then, attach the MR76-HW to the mount plate.
!!! This equipment is only
suitable for mounting at heights ≤ 2 m !!!
4.2.1
Attach the Mount Plate
The MR76-HW mount plate can be used to install your access point in a wide range of scenarios: wall
or solid ceiling, below a drop ceiling, on various electrical junction boxes, or above a drop ceiling (in
the plenum).
The mount plate contains a variety of hole patterns that are customized for each installation scenario.
The mounting template (included inbox with mount plate) should be used to drill holes for wall mounts
and also to identify the correct hole patterns in the mount plate that should be used for each type of
mount.
The following images also show the hole patterns that should be used for each type of mount:
