Figure 11: AP300 Mounted Above a Suspended Ceiling Face Up
The AP300 with the metal enclosure exposed meets the requirements for fire resistance and low
smoke-generating characteristics required by Section 300-22(C) of the National Electrical Code (NEC)
for installation in a building’s environmental air space.
You may need to modify thicker tiles to support this installation.
Warning!
When installed in air-handling spaces, such as above a suspended ceiling,
power the AP300 only with a PoE, not a power supply. See Power Supplies for part
numbers.
Warning!
Any Fast Ethernet (FE) cables installed in air-handling spaces should be
suitable under NEC Article 800.50 and marked accordingly for use in plenums and air-
handling spaces with regard to smoke propagation, such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP (Multi
Purpose Plenum), or CMP (Communications Plenum). Use Ethernet cable that meets
the requirements for operating in plenums and environmental air space in
accordance with Section 300-22(C) of the NEC.
