3. Mounting the AP

The AP can be mounted on the following types of surfaces:

Wall or electrical box (NEMA enclosure)

Table top

Wall or Electrical Box Mounting

To install your AP on a wall or electrical box, use the mounting bracket that comes with the device. Follow these steps:

1Following these guidelines, screw the mounting bracket to a wall or electrical box (NEMA enclosure):

The mounting bracket tabs should be pointing upward.

If mounting to drywall, use the 4 screws and 4 wall anchors.

If mounting to an EU electrical box (60.3mm), use 2 threaded screws and insert into the holes marked “A” in the diagram shown below.

If mounting to a US electrical box (83.3mm), use 2 threaded screws and insert into the holes marked “B” in the diagram shown below.

3To mount the AP onto the mounting bracket, insert the mounting-bracket tabs into the slots on the back of the AP.

CAUTION: If you are mounting the AP on a wall, you cannot use the slots on the bottom narrow edge of the device. Instead, you must use the slots on back of the AP.
