Extreme Networks manual Altitude 4700 Series Access Point Installation Guide

Page 23

NOTE

Both the Altitude 4710 Access Point and the Altitude 4750 Access Point are Plenum rated to UL2043 and NEC1999 to support above the ceiling installations. To ensure UL compliance and proper access point operation within the Air Handling Plenum, the access point must be installed with the bottom surface of the unit in contact with the un-finished surface of the ceiling tile. This will facilitate the positioning of the light pipe (described in the following pages) through the ceiling tile.

CAUTION

Extreme Networks does not recommend mounting the access point directly to any suspended ceiling tile with a thickness less than 12.7mm (0.5in.) or a suspended ceiling tile with an unsupported span greater than 660mm (26in.). Extreme Networks strongly recommends fitting the access point with a safety wire suitable for supporting the weight of the device. The safety wire should be a standard ceiling suspension cable or equivalent steel wire between 1.59mm (.062in.) and 2.5mm (.10in.) in diameter.

The mounting hardware required to install the access point above a ceiling consists of:

Light pipe

Badge for light pipe

Decal for badge

Safety wire (strongly recommended)

Security cable (optional)

To install the access point above a ceiling:

NOTE

Remove the access point’s facade and antennas before installing in an above the ceiling orientation. The access point is not certified for an above the ceiling installation with its accessories installed.

1If possible, remove the adjacent ceiling tile from its frame and place it aside.

2If required, install a safety wire, between 1.5mm (.06in.) and 2.5mm (.10in.) in diameter, in the ceiling space.

3If required, install and attach a security cable to the access point’s lock port.
