Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point

Mounting the Access Point Below a Suspended Ceiling

Step 2 Drill a 3/16 in. (4.7 mm) hole at the X mounting hole locations you marked. Step 3 Insert the wall anchors into the mounting holes.

Step 4 If needed, drill or cut a cable access hole (see Figure 2-6) large enough for the Ethernet and possibly the power cables and pull the cables through the access hole until you have about 1 foot of exposed cables protruding from the hole.

Note You can optionally insert the Ethernet cable and the power cable (if used) through the cable access notch in access point housing (see Figure 2-5).

Step 5 Position the mounting plate over the wall anchors or the drilled holes.

Step 6 Insert two 8 x 32 x 1 inch pan head screws in the X mounting holes and tighten.

To attach the access point to the mounting plate, see “Attaching the Access Point to the Mounting Plate” section on page 2-16.
