1: AP Bracket
2: Recessed tile 12.5 mm T-bar clip
1. Slide one of the T-bar clips into the AP Bracket T-bar slot. Screw it into place using two of the
four provided self-tapping screws. Select the screw holes marked according to the width of
your T-bar, one of 9/16", 15/16", or 1.5". (The other T-bar clip must be attached to the AP
Bracket from above the false ceiling, after the bracket is in place on the T-bar.)
WARNING!
and other hazards. Make whatever safety arrangements are needed to ensure that you can
work safely above the false ceiling. It is recommended that you use a non-conductive step
ladder such as one made of fiberglass.
2. Normally, you will need to position yourself at shoulder-height above the ceiling so that you
can attach the second T-bar clip. Remove/relocate two ceiling tiles, one on each side of the
T-bar on which you will perform the installation.
3. Carrying a screw driver, the AP Bracket with T-bar clip attached, and the other T-bar clip and
two screws, position yourself approximately 60 cm (2 feet) above the T-bar on which you will
install the AP Bracket.
4. Attach the AP Bracket with the already-installed T-bar clip onto the T-bar, and then slide the
other T-bar clip into the AP Bracket T-bar clip slot and screw it in place so that both T-bar clips
firmly grip the T-bar.
5. Tighten all four T-bar clip screws fully and verify that the AP Bracket is firmly anchored to the
T-bar from both sides.
6. Re-install the ceiling tile through which you will pass the Ethernet cable.
