Hardware Installation

2.1 Installation Instructions

An AP-6511 Access Point mounts either on a wall, under a table or over a Telco Box. The AP-6511 is
not plenum rated.
NOTE
The AP-6511 is mounted to a wall or Telco Box so the mounting plate is flush with the mounting
surface.
The AP-6511 snaps on to the mounting plate without the use of tools or fastening hardware. Removal
of the AP-6511 from the mounting plate can be accomplished without the use of a tool. A mounting
lock screw is provided to help ensure a tamper resistant installation.
NOTE
To prepare for an AP-6511 installation, perform the following:
1. Match the model number on the purchase order with the model numbers in the packing list
and on the case of the device shipped.
2. Verify the contents of the box include the intended AP-6511 Access Point model and the
included hardware matches the package contents on page 2.
3. Review site survey and network analysis reports to determine the location and mounting
position for the AP-6511 Access Point.
4. Connect a CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable to a PoE compatible device and run the cable to the
installation site. Ensure there is sufficient cable slack to perform the installation steps.

• Verify the intended AP-6511 deployment location is not prone to moisture or dust

building structure, and can be either plastic or metal in composition.
