Procedure
Step 1 Use the mounting bracket as a template to mark four screw hole locations on the mounting wall. The mounting
bracket screw hole locations are shown in Figure 53: Mounting Bracket for Wall and Pole Mounting, on page
40. The dimensions of the mounting bracket are shown in Figure 54: Mounting Bracket Dimensions, on page
41.
Step 2 Use four screws and, if required, wall anchors to attach the mounting plate to the mounting surface. These
screws and anchors are to be sourced independently.
• You can use an exterior-grade plywood backboard to mount the AP to stucco, cement, or
drywall.
• The mounting wall, attaching screws, and wall anchors must support a 50-lb (22.7 kg) static
weight.
Note
Step 3 Screw an M6 x12–mm bolt into each of the four support bolt holes on the back of the AP. Do not screw the
bolt all the way in, but leave a gap of approximately 0.13 inch (3.3 mm).
Step 4 Position the AP against the mounting bracket such that the four support bolts on the back of the AP slot into
the keyhole slots on the mounting bracket.
Step 5 Slide the AP down to sit securely in keyhole slots on the mounting bracket.
The AP should be mounted with the status LED on the base facing downwards.
Note
Step 6 Using a 10–mm wrench, tighten the four bolts that connect the AP to the bracket to 40 lbf-in (4.5 Nm) of
torque.
Step 7 Proceed with installing antennas (only for external antenna models), connecting the data cables, grounding
the AP, powering, and configuring the AP.
Vertically Mounting the AP to a Pole
The AIR-MNT-VERT1= mounting kit contains a mounting bracket used for both wall mounting and pole
mounting. This kit can be used to install the AP on a pole or mast. It supports metal, wood, or fiberglass poles
of 2 to 5 inches (51 to 127 mm) in diameter.
