Installing the AP
Using the Ceiling Rail Adapter
The AP130 series ships with two ceiling rail adapters for 9/16” and 15/16” ceiling rails.
1. Pull the necessary cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near where the AP will be placed.
2. Place the adapter against the back of the AP with the adapter at an angle of approximately 30 degrees to the
tabs (see
Figure 3
).
3. Twist the adapter clockwise until it snaps into place in the tabs (see
Figure 3
).

4. If necessary, connect the console cable to the console port on the back of the AP.
5. Hold the AP next to the ceiling tile rail with the ceiling tile rail mounting slots at approximately a 30-degree
angle to the ceiling tile rail (see
Figure 4
). Make sure that any cable slack is above the ceiling tile.
6. Pushing toward the ceiling tile, rotate the AP clockwise until the device clicks into place on the ceiling tile rail.
NOTE: Service to all Dell products should be performed by trained service personnel only.
CAUTION: Make sure the AP fits securely on the ceiling tile rail when hanging the device from the ceiling, because poor
installation could cause it to fall onto people or equipment.
