2.6.2 Installing the Device on a Ceiling
A ceiling needs to bear the weight of four times the total weight of the device and mounting bracket
without damage.
1.
Remove a ceiling tile, determine locations of mounting holes based on the distance
between two installation holes on the mounting bracket, use a hammer drill to drill holes
on the ceiling tile, and fix the mounting bracket to the ceiling tile(with a tightening
torque of 1.4 N•m).
The screws provided for ceiling-mounting of APs are 30 mm long and can be used to fix
an AP on a ceiling no thicker than 15 mm. To install APs on thicker ceilings, you need to
purchase longer screws.
1. Ceiling tile
2. Adjustable buckle
3. M4x30 screw
2.
Connect the cables. For details, see 2.7 Cable Connection.
3.
Align the rubber feet of the device over the mounting slots on the mounting bracket and
vertically push the AP to secure it. When the spring clip is popped up, push the AP
horizontally until it snaps into place (you can hear a click).
Ensure that the AP is correctly installed on the mounting bracket and there is 200 mm space above
and around the AP for maintenance.
In a scenario with heavy vibrations, tighten the AP to the mounting bracket using M4x30 screws
with a torque of 1.4N•m. This prevents the AP falling off from due to vibrations. In normal scenarios,
you do not need to install these screws.
