Hardware Installation
Before installing an AP-8533 Access Point, verify the following:
• You are using the correctly rated power solution for the AP-8533, either the
PD-9001GR-ENT Power Injector or the PWR-BGA48V45WOWW external
power supply.
• Do not install the AP-8533 in wet or dusty areas.
• Verify the environment has a continuous temperature range between 32°C
to 122°C or 0°C to 50° C.
Wall Mount Instructions
The AP-8533 can be mounted on any plaster, wood, or cement wall surface
using the mounting brackets provided. The hardware required to install the
AP-8533 on a wall consists of:
• Two wide-shoulder Phillips pan head self-tapping screws (M3.5 x 0.6 x 23
mm)
• Mounting bracket
Optional customer provided installation tools include:
• Phillips head screw driver, or drill and drill bit.
Wall Mount Procedure - New Installation
This section describes a new AP-8533 installation with no previous Access
Point existing on the intended wall surface.
1 Place the mounting bracket against the wall.
2 Mark the screw hole locations on the intended deployment orientation of
the unit.
3 At each point, drill a hole in the wall and attach the mounting bracket (see
Figure 1).
4 Place the Access Point on the mounting bracket.
5 Cable the Access Point using either the Power Injector Solution (PD-
9001GR-ENT) or the approved AP-8533 power supply (PWR-
BGA48V45WOWW).
For Power Injector Installations:
a Connect a RJ-45 CAT5e (or CAT6) Ethernet cable between the Power
Injector Data & Power Out connector and the Access Point’s GE1/PoE
port.

1 AP-8533 Access Point
The following hardware is included
1 Screws and mounting bracket
Note: When operating in a Gigabit Ethernet environment, CAT-5e or
CAT-6 cable is recommended for Gigabit operation.
Note: When pre-drilling a hole, the recommended hole size is 4mm
(0.16 in).
b Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet source (host) to the Power
Injector and Access Point does not exceed 100 meters (333 ft). The
Verify the unit has power by observing the LEDs. For more information
on AP-8533 LED behavior, see the ExtremeWireless AP-8533
Installation Guide.

Suspended Ceiling T-Bar Mount Instructions
Ceiling mount requires holding the AP-8533 up against the T-bar of a
suspended ceiling grid and twisting the unit on to the T-bar. If deploying the
AP-8533 on a sculpted ceiling T-Bar, the Access Point mounting kit (Part No.
KT-135628-01) can optionally be used as well.
1 Install the mounting bracket on the T-bar, then attach the mounting
bracket using the mounting slots on the Access Point (see Figure 2).
2 Cable the Access Point using either the Power Injector solution (PD-
9001GR-ENT) or the approved AP-8533 power supply (PWR-
BGA48V45W0WW). See steps 5 and 6 in Wall Mount Procedure - New
Installation.
3 Align the bottom of the ceiling T-bar with the back of the Access Point.
4 Orient the Access Point chassis by its length and the length of the ceiling T-
bar.
5 Rotate the Access Point chassis 45 degree clockwise.
6 Push the back of the Access Point chassis on the bottom of the ceiling T-
bar.
7 Rotate the Access Point chassis 45 degrees counter-clockwise. The clips
click as they fasten to the T-bar.
