Figure 25: Installation of an AP Above Ceiling Tiles

Note: Install APs above the ceiling tiles only when mounting below the ceiling is not an option. “Above ceiling tiles” installations can certainly degrade advanced RF features such as voice and location, so verify coverage and performance and ensure the tiles are not conductive. Mount the AP as close to the inside middle of the tile as possible, and avoid areas with obstructions and clutter. (See Figure 26.)

Stadium and Harsh Environments

Customers may wish to use a NEMA type enclosure to install an AP in harsh environments where the AP may be exposed to weather, such as sporting areas, stadiums, open garden areas or warehouse freezers. There are several third‐party sources for NEMA type enclosures.
