Installation
Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel must perform installation procedures.
Positioning the Access Point
Align the red dot on the back of the access point with the red dot on the mounting bracket for correct positioning during installation.
Install the Access Point on a Standard Ceiling Rail
The AP4000-1 includes a mounting bracket for standard 15/16 in. dropped ceiling grids. For non-standard installations, consult the relevant accessories guide.
Steps:
- Remove ceiling tiles.
- Align the accessory on the ceiling rail with its metal hinges nearly parallel to the rail sides.
- Rotate the accessory clockwise until the metal hinges hook onto the rail edge and the white tabs click into place. (Refer to Figure 2 for AH-ACC-BKT-AX-TB bracket details and Table 3 for bracket parts).
- Attach the Ethernet port cap to the access point's Ethernet port.
- Align the red dot on the access point with the bracket's red dot. The accessory's circular tip fits into the back of the access point.
- Press and rotate the access point 1/8th turn clockwise until it clicks securely onto the accessory. (Refer to Figure 3 for ceiling installation view).
- Attach the Cat6 RJ45 cable to the Eth0 or Eth1 port.
- If desired, place the cable cover over the Ethernet cable for a cleaner look.
- Replace the ceiling tiles.
