Installation
Caution:
If the AP will be powered by a user-supplied PoE power injector,
use only a gigabit-compatible power injector. Although 10/100 PoE-enabled
switches are compatible, PoE injectors designed for 10/100 networks only are
NOT compatible with the AP.
Installation
The AP can be mounted on a wall, a wall-mounted electrical box, or a suspended
ceiling. The AP Bracket is mounted first and then the AP is attached to the
bracket. The AP Bracket is two-sided: The AP is installed on the side with the UP
arrow. The other side with the T-bar clip screw holes faces the wall or T-bar.
Mounting directly on a wall
1.
Respecting the UP arrow on the AP Bracket, hold it against the wall at the
desired position. Mark two holes for the screws (wall anchors) and one
hole in the cutout area of the AP Bracket for the Ethernet cable.
2.
Drill two holes for the wall anchors, typically 4.7 mm (3/16 inch) in
diameter.

If necessary, drill a hole for the Ethernet cable in the marked cutout area
of the AP Bracket. Alternatively, you can feed the Ethernet cable from
above and through the AP cable channel.
