4 Insert the access point onto the bracket locking tab and slide it down until it is fully
seated onto the bracket.
5 Attach the security locking screw to the security locking tab on the wall bracket, and
lock the access point in place.
If you want to install the access point on a solid ceiling or a dry wall, you need to create a
hole from behind the wall to run the RJ45 cable. For more information, refer to the
ExtremeWireless AP302W Access Point Installation Guide.
Install the Access Point on a Junction Box
Use the stainless steel mounting bracket to mount the access point on a junction box.
