AP Installation

Using Ceiling Mounting Bracket

Make sure the AP fits securely on the ceiling tile rail when hanging the device from the ceiling, poor
installation could cause it to fall onto people or equipment.
The OAW-AP has been shipped with two mounting brackets for 9/16" and 15/16" ceiling rails. Following is
the general sequence to install the OAW-AP with the mounting bracket.
•
Pull the cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near where the AP will be placed.
•
Place the bracket against the back of the AP, insert by aligning the slot on the backside with the
hanging feet on both sides of the bracket (see Figure 4) .
•
Push the bracket along the direction of the arrow until it locks in the slot (see Figure 4).
•
Connect the cable to the port on the AP.
•
Hold the AP next to the ceiling tile rail with the ceiling tile rail mounting slots at approximately a 20-
degree angle to the ceiling tile rail (see Figure 5). Make sure that any cable slack is above the ceiling
tile.
•
Pushing toward the ceiling tile, rotate the AP clockwise until the device clicks into place on the ceiling
tile rail(see Figure 5).
