Mounting on a Horizontal or Vertical Surface

Follow these steps to mount the access point on a horizontal or vertical surface, such as a ceiling or wall.
Step 1 Use the wall or ceiling mounting bracket as a template to mark the locations of the mounting holes.
You can use any of the 10 holes around the periphery (three of which are identified in the
illustration) of the bracket to mount it using the supplied #8 fasteners.
Step 2 Drill one of the following sized holes at the locations you marked:
3/16 in. (4.7 mm) if you are using wall anchors
3/32 in. (2.3 mm) if you are not using wall anchors
Step 3 Install the anchors into the wall if you are using them. Otherwise, go to Step 4.
Step 4 Secure the mounting bracket to the surface using the #8 fasteners.
Note On a vertical surface, be sure to mount the bracket with its security hasp facing down.
Step 5 Line up the mounting slots on the access point with the mounting rail on the mounting bracket and slide
down the mounting rails until it clicks into place.
