Allow for a clearance of at least 25 cm (10 Inches) between the ceiling and the top of the mounting plate.

Make sure that “UP” is correctly oriented, and align the mounting plate screw holes vertically.

For installation on a wall stud, install the top screw into the stud, as shown at left in the illustration, and then vertically align the mounting plate before installing the

bottom screw.

For installation on to drywall, mark three screw holes using the mounting plate as a template for vertical alignment, as shown at right in the illustration above.

Use a 5-mm (3/16-in.) drill bit if using the plastic anchors provided.

For drywall mounts, you can route the cable through either a side or center opening for a seamless appearance using one of the methods illustrated below. Alternatively, you can simply attach the Ethernet cable to the side of the unit, allowing it to trail along the wall. If you have routed the Ethernet cable through the center opening, secure the cable on the hook located on the mounting plate as shown in the illustration below.

2Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the access point.

3Position the access point at an angle to the mounting plate bayonet connection and turn the unit clockwise until it snaps into place, as shown below.

Leave at least 13 cm (5 in.) length. Ethernet cable may be routed through center opening or through the side.

Hold the access point at an angle. Turn clockwise to engage and secure it on the mounting plate.

4Set the access point down on a flat, level surface.
