Hardware Installation
Altitude 300-2i™. Use the bracket as a template to mark the holes on the ceiling. For each of the four plastic anchors supplied with the unit, drill 4.8 mm (3/16"} pilot holes, 24.5 mm (1") deep. If wall anchors are not being used drill 3.2 mm (1/8") holes, 1 inch (25.4 mm) deep. Install the bracket using the screws from the kit. The Altitude 300-2™is designed to slip into the mounting slots on the bracket and slide all the way to the front, see Figure 5: Mounting the Wireless Port on the Universal Mounting Bracket on page 23. The unit should then be secured with either a padlock (not supplied) or a cable tie (supplied). The installer may now follow the standard instructions for connecting the Ethernet cable, antenna shrouds for integrated antennas, and the plastic cover.
WARNING!
The Altitude 300-2™is not secured to the bracket unless a padlock is used. If a padlock is not used the unit should be secured to the bracket by a cable tie through the lock hasp to keep it from falling. Failure to secure the unit is hazardous.
Mounting Below A Hanging Ceiling
The Altitude 300-2™may be suspended from the T-Bars of a hanging ceiling. The mounting kit contains two T-Bar fasteners that can be adjusted for a variety of T-Bar widths. There are a number of round holes on the bracket that can be used for the T-Bar fasteners; use two that are convent for the required orientation on the ceiling. The bracket is oriented on the T-Bar with so that the antennas face the desired direction. Use the bracket to lightly mark where the T-Bar fasteners should be placed. Install the two T-Bar fasteners on the T-Bar, see Figure 6: Installation on A Hanging Ceiling on page 24. Some ceilings have ceiling tiles that hang down below the bottom of the T-Bar. Spacers are provided with the kit for these types of tiles. The spaces go between the T-Bar fasteners and the bracket with the spacer’s face against the bracket, see Figure 7: Installation of Optional Spacer on page 25. Mount the bracket and make sure fasteners are tight and the bracket is secure. The Altitude 300-2™is now slipped into the bracket's mounting slots and slid all the way to the back, see Figure 5: Mounting the Wireless Port on the Universal Mounting Bracket on page 23. The unit should then be secured with either a padlock (not supplied) or a cable tie (supplied). The installer may now follow the standard instructions for connecting the Ethernet cable, antenna shrouds for integrated antennas, and the plastic cover.
