Mount AP832i on an Interlude T-Bar

The mounting procedure for a ceiling that has interlude T-Bar supports is similar to that of mounting

SCRMKIT-04), as depicted in

bracket by pressing the bracket's Mounting Pins (shown in
sliding the bracket until it locks in place.
3. Push down on the thumbscrews provided on the mounting bracket and clip it to the ceiling bar that
will support the AP.
4. Tighten the screws to ensure that the mechanism stays locked in place.
5. Gently press the underside of the AP (with bracket attached) against the T-Bar Mounting bracket
indicated above and twist to lock them together.
6. Connect one end of the CAT5 (or greater) Ethernet cable with PoE to the 100/1000 Ethernet
connector on the underside of the AP.
7. Verify that the AP comes online and then replace the ceiling tiles removed in Step 1.
