MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The AP can be mounted to a drop-ceiling T-bar, flat surface, or a
pole using Ruckus Wireless AP mounting kits. Refer to the
following sections:
• Mounting on a Drop-Ceiling T-Bar
• Mounting on a Flat Surface
• Mounting on a Flat Surface or Pole Using the Optional Secure
Mounting Bracket
Mounting on a Drop-Ceiling T-Bar
The factory-supplied T-bar mounting assembly kit allows you to
attach the AP to recessed and flush drop-ceiling T-bars.
1 Position the studs on the bottom of the T-bar bracket (A in Fig-
ure 3) in the keyholes on the AP enclosure.
2 Slide the T-bar bracket away from the Ethernet ports on the
bottom of the AP until the AP retainer tab (B in Figure 3
) snaps
into place, trapping the T-bar bracket studs in the keyholes (C
in Figure 3
).
Figure 3. Attaching the T-bar bracket to the AP
3 Insert the locking tab (D in Figure 3) so it is in the first position
on the T-bar bracket (A in Figure 3
).
4 Gently push the ceiling tiles, if present, up and out of the way.
5 Position the T-bar bracket so its two clasps grip one edge of
the T-bar (A in Figure 4
). Make sure that both clasps are grip-
ping the T-bar.
Default AP Settings (for your reference)
Network Names (SSIDs) Wireless1—Wireless8 (2.4GHz
radio)
Wireless9—Wireless16 (5GHz
radio)
Security (Encryption method) Disabled for each wireless
interface
Default Management IP
Address
192.168.0.1
Optional: In a default R710 AP configuration, the AP uses a
DHCP-assigned IP address.
If you anticipate logging into the AP regularly to perform
monitoring or maintenance once it is in place, then you may want
to consider switching from DHCP and instead assigning a static
IP address to the AP.
A. On the menu, click Configuration > Internet.
B. Click the Static IP option.
C. Fill in the IP Address and Mask fields.
D. Click Update Settings to save your changes.
Note: If you will be using PoE, then you will need a Cat 5e (or
better) Ethernet cable to connect the AP to the PoE injector or
PoE switch.
Note: There is a second set of keyholes that are for optional
sideways mounting on a drop-ceiling T-bar. Physical security is
not supported when mounting the AP with this set of keyholes.
Note: For clarity, Figure 4 only shows the T-bar bracket and the
T-bar, and does not show the AP.
