Cisco Meraki MR18 Installation Guide

A mounting template is included with the mounting plate to assist with the install.
Security Features
The MR18 features multiple options for physically securing the access point after installation:
1. Security screw – The accessory kit includes screws that can be used to secure the access point to the mount
cradle. Engaging the security screw prevents accidental dislodging and theft.
2. Kensington lock – The access point contains a hard point that allows it to be secured to any nearby permanent
structure using a standard Kensington lock.
Ethernet Ports
The MR18 features a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port that accepts 802.3af power (labeled “Eth0, PoE”). This port should be
used for uplink to your WAN connection.
Power Source Options
The MR18 access point can be powered using either the Meraki AC Adapter, PoE Injector (both sold separately), or a
PoE switch.
