Figure 2-5 AP-700 Mounting Plate

Mounting the AP-700 to a Wall

1.Put the mounting plate up to the wall.

2.Screw through the mounting plate.

3.Place the AP up against the mounting plate. Orient the AP with the long access vertical, with the connectors facing to the left.

Installing External Antennas

You can optionally install external antennas on the AP-700. For information on the AP’s antenna functionality, see Antennas.

Follow the mounting instructions included with your external antenna, and then connect the antenna cable to the AP, as follows:

1.Press down near the center of the compartment covering and slide open the external antenna access compartment. The compartment closer to the LED panel contains the connectors.

NOTE: AP-700 models 8675-US2 and 8675-AU do not provide external antenna connectors .
