1 Overview LED Indicators Powering Methods The AP505i is a next generation, indoor ceiling mount model enterprise-class 802.11ax access point (AP). The “i” in AP505i indicates that it comes with internal antennas. The AP features two simultaneous 4 x 4 radios, eight WiFi internal antennas, and one Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) antenna. The AP505i can be mounted on a dry or wood wall, solid-flat ceiling, junction/ gang box, and on a suspended or drop ceiling.

2 Installation Process Verifying the Box Contents Mounting Brackets and Accessories Usage Mounting to a Suspended/Drop Ceiling Mounting the AP on a Dry or Wood Wall/Solid Flat Ceiling Mounting to a Junction/Gang box Mounting the AP to a Beam Connecting the Power Supply Follow this procedure to install AP505i: 1 Verify the box contents. 2 Review the Safety Guidelines. 3 Mount the AP to a flat ceiling. Alternatively, you can also mount the AP to a junction/gang box, or a suspended or drop ceiling.
Installation Process 2 Perform a visual inspection of the AP for any signs of physical damage. Contact Extreme Networks if there are any signs of damage. Note Before mounting the AP505i, read the Safety Guidelines. Mounting Brackets and Accessories Usage The access point comes with the Main Mounting Bracket (#37201) and the M3 security screw kit. The AP can also be used with various other brackets and accessories that can be purchased separately.

Installation Process Mounting the AP using the Main Mounting Bracket to a Flat T-bar The AP can be mounted on a t-bar using the main mounting bracket that is shipped with the unit. The mounting bracket does not come attached to the unit. Pre-Installation Checklist: • T-bar maximum base thickness: 0.055”. • T-bar bottom must be flat all the way across. • T-bar minimum base thickness: N/A; must be structurally sound. • T-bar width must be 15/16” (24mm). • Ceiling tile must be flat all the way across.
Installation Process 3 Hold the AP and rock it back and forth to ensure it is securely mounted. 4 Replace the tiles. 5 Attach the Ethernet cable's RJ45 connector to the LAN1 port. Mounting the AP using the Main Mounting Bracket and KT-135628-01 Adapter to a Flat T-bar Mounting the AP to a suspended or drop ceiling requires the optional adaptor (Universal Mounting Kit for WLAN APs; # KT- 135628-01). The adapter requires a flat t-bar and fits a ceiling tile with up to a 0.35” protrusion from the bar.
Installation Process 4 Hold the AP and rock it back and forth to ensure that it is securely mounted. 5 Attach the Ethernet cable’s RJ45 connector to the LAN1 port. Mounting the AP using the WS-MBI-DCFLUSH Bracket to a Flat T-bar The optional WS-MBI-DCFLUSH (#37211) bracket can also be used for T-bar installations without the mounting bracket. Pre-Installation checklist: • T-bar width must be 9/16” (15mm), 15/16” (24mm), 1.5” (38mm).T-bar bottom must be flat all the way across.
Installation Process 5 Slide the T-bar ceiling mount bracket base into the back of the access point. The locking tab fits into a groove in the outside of the AP. Figure 7: Attaching the AP unit onto the WS-MBI-DCFLUSH bracket 6 Hold the AP and rock it back and forth to ensure that it is securely mounted. 7 Attach the Ethernet cable’s RJ45 connector to the LAN1 port and place the ceiling tile back in place.
Installation Process 2 Open the movable sliding part of the T-bar to give the stationary and slider T-bar more space. 3 Hook the stationary end of the T-bar bracket onto the T-bar. 4 Tilt the T-bar up slightly in such a way that you are holding the stationary and movable sides of the bracket. 5 Squeeze the bracket parts together until you hear the T-bar locking tab click into place. 6 Slide the T-bar ceiling mount bracket base into the back of the access point.
Installation Process Mounting the AP on a Dry or Wood Wall/Solid Flat Ceiling The AP505i can be mounted to a dry/wood wall or a solid flat ceiling using various mounting brackets listed in this section. Note The recommended method of installation is using the Main Mounting Bracket. Pre-Installation checklist: • The mounting surface, item, and hardware must be able to support the AP in all environmental conditions. • The mounting surface should be flat.
Installation Process 4 Insert the AP onto the bracket’s four feet and slide it to the right to lock it in place. Figure 9: Attaching the access point to the main mounting bracket Label Description 1 Guide posts to attach the security torx locking screw 5 Attach the security torx locking screw to keep the main mounting bracket in place. For more information, see Install a Security Torx Locking Screw on page 22.
Installation Process Install a Security Torx Locking Screw The security torx locking screw is used to prevent the access point from being removed from the main mounting bracket (#37201). There are two security lock screw holes on the rear of the access point. Follow this procedure to install the security torx locking screw using one of the security lock holes on the access point. Note Perform this task after the access point is attached to the main mounting bracket on a dry or wood wall.
Installation Process Mounting the AP to a wall using the WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket Mounting the AP to a flat ceiling requires the WS-MBI-WALL04 (#30516) bracket, two Philips Pan-head screws, and two screw-in anchors. They must be purchases separately. 1 Install the WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket on a wall/ceiling with the two screws and screw-in anchors. Ensure that the locking tab on the WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket is on the top side during installation.
Installation Process Figure 12: Mounting the AP using the WS-MBI-WALL04 Bracket (when bracket corners are broken off) 2 Connect the LAN cable to the AP. 3 Insert the AP onto the keyhole posts and slide the AP. 4 Lock the AP into place at about 1/4 inch. Mounting the AP onto a wall using the Main Bracket and the Flat Metal EasyAttach adapter The AP can also be mounted onto a wall or solid ceiling by attaching a flat metal easy-attach adaptor to the main mounting bracket.
Installation Process 5 Hold the AP, insert and tighten the 2 screws until you lock it into place. Note The “E” logo must be in the right orientation before tightening the screws. Mounting to a wall using the Philips Pan-head screws You can mount the AP505i access point directly onto a dry/solid wall using the Philips Pan-Head screws. This is an optional installation method and not the preferred mode of installation. 1 Drill two holes 104 mm (4.
Installation Process 4 Align the AP against the screw heads and slide it down. Ensure that the AP is secured in place and tightened. If the AP is loose, unmount the AP and decrease the distance between the screw head and the wall. Remount the AP. Note When installing the AP, the “E” logo should be in the right orientation.
Installation Process • • The AP505i access point can be mounted onto a beam using a beam clip accessory (BRKT-000147A-01) to the main mounting bracket. The beam should be flat. Before attaching the AP onto a beam, verify that: • Beam attachment area is at least 0.5” (12.7mm) wide and as long as the AP’s largest dimension. • Beam mounting surface is less than 0.650” (16.5mm) thick.
Installation Process 2 The AP505i can also be powered by an external DC power supply plugged into an AC source. Plug the supply’s input jack into the DC-In port.
