Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Before Beginning the Installation
Installation Above Suspended Ceilings
The access point uses a metal enclosure having adequate fire resistance and low smoke-producing
characteristics suitable for operation in a building’s environmental air space (such as above suspended
ceilings) in accordance with Section 300-22(c) of the NEC. For mounting instructions, refer to the
Chapter 6, “Mounting Instructions.”
Caution Only the fiber-optic power injector (AIR-PWRINJ-FIB) has been tested to UL 2043 for operation in a
building’s environmental air space, all other power injectors and power modules are not tested to UL 2043
and should not be placed in a building’s environmental air space, such as above suspended ceilings.
Note If you plan to mount the access point in environmental air space and will upgrade to a 5-GHz radio, Cisco
recommends that you mount the access point horizontally with its antennas pointing down. Doing so will
result in the access point complying with regulatory requirements for environmental air space after the
5-GHz radio is installed.
Before Beginning the Installation
Before you begin the installation process, please refer to Figure 2-1, Figure 2-2, and Figure 2-3 to
become familiar with the access point’s layout, connectors, and 5-GHz module location.
