Mounting the AP directly on a Wall
To mount the AP on a wall, follow these steps:
Step 1 Fasten the wall-mount bracket (AIR-AP-BRACKET-W3) to the wall, using two M3.5X32mm
screws. Ensure that the side having the Mount Arrows Up label is facing outwards, and the
bracket is oriented vertically as indicated by the arrows. See
Figure 11.
The wall-bracket dimensions are given in Figure 12.
Step 2 Connect the power and network cables to the AP.
If you are unable to connect a PoE cable to the port on the back of the AP, then:
a. On the back of the AP, use an RJ45 jumper cable to connect the PoE port to the Pass-Through
port. This jumper cable is available as part of the spacer kit AIR-AP1815W-KIT=.
b. Connect the PoE supply cable to the Pass-Through port on the base of the AP.
This connection sends power internally from the Pass-Through port on the base, to the
Pass-Through port on the back, and then though the jumper cable into the PoE port on the
back.
Step 3 Mount the AP onto the wall-mount bracket. For this, align the AP with the bracket and then
offset the AP around ¼
inch above the bracket.
Step 4 Fasten the AP to the bracket using the M2 x 5.5mm Torx security screw. Cover it with the
mylar label.
