Step 5 Select a mounting location on the pole to mount the access point. You can attach the access point to any pole from 2
to 16 inch (5.1 to 40.6 cm) in diameter.
Step 6 For poles larger than 3.5 inch (8.9 cm), mount the pole clamp bracket assembly to a pole (see the following image)
using two metal straps. Following the instructions provided with the banding strap tool (BAND IT)
(AIR-BAND-INST-TL=), loop each metal strap twice through the slots on the strap bracket.
Do not place the metal straps in the large open area between the pole clamp bracket and the strap brackets,
because this does not properly secure the access point.

Step 7 For pole diameters of 3.5 inch (8.9 cm) or less, mount the pole clamp bracket assembly to a pole using two metal straps
looped through the space between the pole clamp bracket and the strap brackets to provide maximum holding strength
for extreme environments. Following the instructions provided with the banding strap tool (BAND IT)
(AIR-BAND-INST-TL=), loop each metal strap twice.
Do not place the metal straps in the large open area between the pole clamp bracket and the strap brackets
because this does not properly secure the access point.
Caution
Step 8 Position the pole clamp bracket on the pole as needed before tightening the metal bands.
When the metal bands are tightened to the full tension, the pole clamp bracket cannot be adjusted unless
the metal bands are cut or disassembled.
Note
Step 9 Tighten the metal bands using the banding strap tool (BAND IT) (Cisco AIR-BAND-INST-TL=) by following the
operating instructions in the box with the tool. Ensure that the metal bands are as tight as possible.
Step 10 Place the mounting bracket onto the pole clamp bracket support bolt.
Step 11 Install four M8 x16 bolts (with flat and lock washers) into the bolt holes.
