4. Plug the Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port (and plug the power cord into the power port, if
applicable) on the back of the AP before mounting the AP on the bracket.
5. Place the back of the AP against the mounting bracket so that the bracket side rails fit into the
rail slots on the back of the AP and the locking screw hole in the AP aligns with the locking
tab. Slide the AP down until the AP rests on the locking tab, and screw in the locking screw
through the locking tab and locking screw hole. Figure 2-4 shows what the AP would look like
with the mounting bracket in place.

junction box, with two screws through the bracket junction box screw holes into the
