Suspended Ceiling T-Bar Installations
A suspended ceiling mount requires holding the access point up against the T-bar of a
suspended ceiling grid and twisting the access point chassis onto the T-bar.
The mounting tools (customer provided) and hardware required to install the access
point on a ceiling T-bar consists of:
● Safety wire (recommended and customer supplied)
● Security cable (optional and customer supplied)
To install the access point on a ceiling T-bar:
1 Extreme Networks recommends you loop a safety wire — with a diameter of at least
1.01 mm. (.04 in.), but no more than 0.158 mm (.0625 in.) — through the tie post
(above the access point’s console connector) and secure the loop.
2 If desired, install and attach a security cable to the access point lock port.
3 Attach the antennas to their correct connectors.
4 For information on the antennas available to the access point, see “Antenna Options”
on page 14 .
CAUTION
Ensure you are placing the antennas on the correct connectors to ensure the successful
operation of the access point.
5 Cable the access point using either the Power Injector solution or the power supply.
For Power Injector installations:
a Connect a RJ-45 CAT5e (or CAT6) Ethernet cable between the network data
supply (host) and the Power Injector Data In connector.
b Connect a RJ-45 CAT5e (or CAT6) Ethernet cable between the Power Injector
Data & Power Out connector and the access point’s GE1/POE port.
c Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet source to the Power Injector and access
point does not exceed 100 meters (333 ft). The Power Injector has no On/Off
