Find a flat work surface to assemble the ceiling enclosure, access point and antenna(s) prior to mounting in ceiling.
Step 1 – Place the ceiling enclosure
assembly on the work surface with the
keyed doorway unlocked. Remove hole
knock outs located on the outside edge of
the back box to install conduit connectors.
Install one conduit connector if using
P.O.E. or install 2 conduit connectors if
bringing in power and Ethernet and power
separately (Figure 1).

Step 2 – (Cisco AP’s Only) Remove the T-Bar
mounting bracket. The mounting holes for Cisco AP’s
are located in the enclosure’s back box. Standard
Cisco mounting brackets as well as “Bracket 2” can be
attached so the “Cisco” logo of the AP is parallel to the
hinge. For “Bracket 1” the logo of the AP will be
mounted perpendicular to the hinge. Securely fasten
the access point’s mounting plate to the mounting
holes on the back wall of the enclosure using (4) # 8-
32 screws. Attach the Access Point to the mounting
plate. Proceed to Step 3 (Ref. Figure 2a).

Step 2 – (Any manufacturer’s access points) Install the
access point’s mounting plate to the enclosure’s “T-Bar”
bracket using the manufacturer’s instructions for attaching
the mounting bracket to a ceiling tile grid (T-Bar). Attach
the Access Point to the mounting plate. (Ref. Figure 2b)
Proceed to Step 3
Figure 2b
Step 3 – If applicable, install the antenna(s) per the instructions included with optional antenna kit. After installation, connect
the RF coax cable from the antenna to the access point (Figure 3).

The assembled unit is now ready for ceiling installation.
Step 4 – Remove the ceiling tile and replace it with the completed access point enclosure assembly.
Step 5 – Use minimum 12-gauge support wire (included) to support the access point enclosure independently of the ceiling
grid. Attach one end of the wire to the support wire tabs located along the edge of the back box and the other end to a
permanent supporting structure within the ceiling such as a ceiling joist (Figure 4).
**IMPORTANT** - This is an important safety feature that could prevent human injury or damage to the access
point should the unit become dislodged from the ceiling.
