User's Manual

When using System Director V6.0 SR2 (or earlier version) and an IEEE Std
802.3at, all possible configurations are supported (all three radios utilizing up to 3
antennas each). or a list of supported PoEs, see the appendix Supported Power
Over Ethernet Devices for Meru APs.
4.4 Installation Requirements
An array of holes on the mounting bracket allows the AP433e to be mounted on
the wall and over junction boxes or molly bolts. There are holes for passing the
PoE Ethernet or external power supply cable through the bracket if the bracket is
mounted on a junction box.
The AP433e has a security cable slot so you can lock the AP433e with a standard
security cable, such as those used to secure laptop computers.
Purchase optional mounting kits to mount the AP433e either from the ceiling or
inside an enclosure:
Above Suspended Ceiling Mounting Kit (T-Bar Hanger): MNT-SCRMKIT-01
Above hanging ceiling tiles. Suitable for use in environmental air space in
accordance with the Section 300-22(c) of the National Electric Code and Sections
2- 128.12 - 010 (3) and 12 - 100 of the Canadian Electrical Code. Part 1. C22. 1.
To complete AP433e installation, you need the items listed below.

4.6 Install the AP433e
This section describes how to install an AP433e, which is supported on System
Director Version 6.0-SR1 and later. It contains the following subjects,
• Select a Location
• Attach the Provided Antennas
• Install the Access Point
4.6.1 Select a Location
All AP433e interconnected equipment, including the associated LAN connection,
must be contained within the same building. In addition, the AP433e location
should meet the following conditions:
Relatively unobstructed access to the stations the AP serves. Select a location
with minimal physical obstructions between the AP and the wireless stations. In an
office with cubicles, mounting the APs below a hanging ceiling (plenum is
supported) or the wall near the ceiling provides the least obstructed
