Checking Before Installation Unpack the package.
Installing the AP 3. Determining the Installation Position When determining the AP installation position, comply with the following rules: Try to reduce the number of obstacles, such as walls, between the AP and user terminals. Install the AP away from electronic devices that can interfere the radio signal or make noises, such as the microwave oven. Install the AP in a hidden position that does not affect working and living of residents.
Installing the AP 4. Installing the AP NOTE The AP3010DN-AGN, AP5010DN-AGN, and AP5010SN-GN have plastic wall-mounting bracket delivered with them, so they can only be wall mounted. The AP6010DN-AGN, AP6010SN-GN, AP6310SN-GN, AP7110DN-AGN, and AP7110SN-GN have sheet metal wall-mounting bracket delivered with them, so they can be wall mounted, ceiling mounted, or T-rail mounted indoors. The procedures for installing all models of indoor APs are the same unless otherwise stated.
Installing the AP Against the Ceiling 1. Fix a clip holder at the rear side of the AP with two M3*6 screws. The wall-mounting bracket is fixed at the ceiling, and the AP is hung on the bracket. The clip holder prevents the AP from dropping. 2 1 1. M3*6 screw 2. Clip holder 2. Remove the ceiling, determine locations of mounting holes based on the distance between two installation holes, use the hammer drill to drill holes, and fix the wall-mounting bracket to the ceiling. 2 1 UP UP 35mm 3 1.
