ProSAFE Dual Band Wireless AC Access Point Model WAC740 

Note:

Although the product package includes four wall anchors and screws, 
two screws are sufficient to attach the wall-mounting bracket as shown 
in the previous figure. However, if you prefer, you can use four screws 
and insert them through the mounting holes in the corners of the 
wall-mounting bracket.

6. 

Align the three holes on the access point bracket with the three hooks on the wall-mounting 

bracket and slide the access point down until it click-attaches to the wall-mounting bracket 
and is secured. 

The following figures show a side view of the wall.
