Installing AP320i

Figure 23: Interlude Tile Bracket

The mounting procedure for the interlude bracket is identical to that described in Mount AP320i Below

a Recessed Ceiling. Essentially, fit the bracket to the ceiling T-bar and twist the AP into place on it.

Refer to the previous section for step-by-step instructions.

Mount AP320i Vertically on a Wall

Note that your AP320i may utilize one of two different wall mount brackets (depending on the product

revision). Prior to revision N, the bracket twisted into position with the AP (shown in Figure 24). The

updated bracket (post revision N) slides into place with three mounting screws. For the former bracket,

follow the instructions below. For the updated version, refer to Using the Updated AP320i Wall Mount

Bracket.

The AP320i ships with a ceiling mount bracket already connected to the unit and an additional separate

wall bracket. When wall mounting a unit, you will attach the wall mount bracket to the wall, then

attach the ceiling bracket (including AP320i) to the wall bracket. If you are replacing an AP200, the

AP320i wall bracket can be mounted on top of the old bracket using shoulder screws (not included);

you don’t need to remove the old bracket. If you are replacing an AP150 or AP300, the AP320i can also

be mounted on top of the old bracket after removing the ceiling mount bracket that ships attached by

default (no additional screws required).

To mount an AP320i on sheetrock or wall studs, follow these steps:

1. Using the wall bracket holes as a guide, mark the location on the wall for two AP bracket mounting

screws. Orient the connected AP320i horizontally so that you can read the Meru logo without tilting

your head at 90 degrees - this orientation provides optimum MIMO performance.

Note:

The interlude mounting bracket can only be used for APs post-revision N.
