Mounting the WLAN Application Gateway 2246

The WLAN Application Gateway 2246 is physically connected to the Ethernet switch and can be placed in any convenient location within 325 feet (100 m) of the switch.

The WLAN Application Gateway 2246 can be mounted either vertically or horizontally.

The rack-mount kit is designed for mounting the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 in a standard

19-inch rack and contains the following equipment:

Mounting plates – two for each WLAN Application Gateway 2246 to be mounted.

Screws – four rack-mount screws for each WLAN Application Gateway 2246 to be mounted.

Wall-mounting the WLAN Application Gateway 2246

1Use a 1/8-inch drill bit to drill four pilot holes, on 1.84-by-12.1 inch centers (approximately equivalent to 1-13/16 inch by 12-1/8 inch).

2Insert the #8 x 3/4-inch screws in the pilot holes and tighten, leaving a 1/8 to 1/4-inch gap from the wall.

3Slide the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 over the screws until it drops into place in the keyhole openings of the flange.

4Tighten screws fully.

Rack-mounting the WLAN Application Gateway 2246

1Remove the corner screws from the WLAN Application Gateway 2246.

2Screw the U-shaped end (round screw holes) of the two mounting plates to the WLAN Application Gateway 2246.

3Screw the other end of the two mounting plates (oblong screw holes) to the rack.

4Repeat steps 1-3 for each additional WLAN Application Gateway 2246. The mounting plate is designed to provide the correct minimum spacing between units. When mounting multiple units, stack the units in the rack as closely as possible.

Connecting to the LAN

Use an RJ-45 cable to connect the NETWORK port on the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 to the connecting port on the Ethernet switch.
