2.1 Installation Instructions
An AP-8432 Access Point mounts either on a wall (with M 3.5 x 0.6 x 23 MM
pan head screws and mounting bracket or equivalent) or on a suspended
ceiling T-bar.
To prepare for the installation:
1. Match the part number on the purchase order with the part numbers in
the packing list and on the case of the Access Point.
2. Verify the contents of the box include the intended AP-8432 Access
Point, and the included hardware matches the package contents (see
AP-8432 Package Contents on page 6).
3. Review site survey and network analysis reports to determine the
location and mounting position for the AP-8432 Access Point.
4. Connect a CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable to a compatible 802.3at or
802.3af power source and run the cable to the installation site. Ensure
there is sufficient slack in the cable to perform the installation steps.
