Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Mounting the Access Point
Step 3 Screw an M6 x12 mm bolt into each of the four support bolt holes on the back of the access point. Do
not screw the bolt all the way in; leave approximately a 0.13 inch (3.3 mm) space.
Step 4 Position the four bolts on the access point into the keyhole slots on the mounting bracket.
Step 5 Slide the access point down to sit securely in the quick mount notches.
Step 6 Using a 10mm wrench, secure the AP to the bracket by tightening the bolts to the bracket; torque to 40
lb-in.
Step 7 Continue with the Grounding the Access Point, page 2-38.
Pole Mounting the Access Point with the Fixed Mount Kit
The optional fixed mounting kit contains a mounting bracket for wall mounting or pole mounting.This
kit can be used to install the access point on a pole, mast or streetlight. It supports metal, wood or
fiberglass poles from 2 to 8 inches in diameter.
Ta b l e 2 - 2 Materials Needed to Mount the AP on a Vertical Pole
To mount the access point onto a vertical pole or streetlight pole, follow these steps:
Step 1 Select a mounting location on the pole to mount the access point. You can attach the access point to any
pole with a diameter from 2to 8 inches (5.1 to 20.1 cm).
Note If you will be using a streetlight power tap adapter, position the access point within 3 ft (1 m) of
the outdoor light control. The AC/DC adapter must be used with street light power tap.
Step 2 Determine which size of band clamp is needed based on the pole diameter. Slide the two clamps through
the top and bottom set of mounting slots (see Figure 2-4) and mount the bracket to the pole.
Step 3 Wrap the band clamps around the pole and slide them into the second set of top and bottom mounting
slots on the bracket. Lightly tighten the clamps. Only tighten them enough to keep the bracket from
sliding down the pole.
