2. Place the back of the WS-AP3705i against the T-bar rail and turn the AP so that the mount
clips snap over the rail, as shown in
Figure 2-1. Figure 2-1 shows the AP mounting operation
from a perspective above the rail, in which case the twist is clockwise. From a perspective
below the AP, you are turning the AP in a counterclockwise motion.

3. Make a hole through the ceiling panel closest to the power slot on the AP. Then run the
Ethernet cable through the hole and into the LAN port (RJ45 Ethernet port) in the recessed
connector bay.
4. Replace the displaced ceiling panels.
Mounting the WS-AP3705i to a Protruded Drop Ceiling
A protruded drop ceiling is a drop ceiling in which the ceiling tiles protrude below the T-bar rails
on which they rest. To mount the WS-AP3705i to a protruded drop ceiling, you need the optional
Protruded Drop Ceiling Mount Bracket (WS-MB3705-02). To attach the WS-AP3705i to a
protruded drop ceiling:
1. Attach the slide plate to the ceiling mount bracket by sliding the bottom plate of the slide plate
into the slide plate tracks in the center of the mount plate as shown in Figure 2-2 on page 2-4.
2. Remove the ceiling panels around the drop ceiling T-bar rails where you intend to mount the
AP. Verify that the Ethernet cable that will connect to the AP can reach the AP at the point
where you plan to mount it.
