3 Installation Steps
Locking Tab
EAP225-Wall can be mounted into an 86mm wall junction box, a standard EU wall junction box, or
a standard US junction box. The junction box should be pre-installed with a running-in-wall
Ethernet cable connected to a PoE switch.
ETH0 (PoE IN)
86mm wall junction box Standard EU wall junction box
Note: For simplicity, the 86mm wall junction box is used as an example below.
1. Detach the faceplate of the junction box with a Phillips screwdriver.

3. A Phillips screwdriver
4. A PoE switch
Standard US wall junction box
2. Insert the enclosed screws and tighten them with a Philips screwdriver to secure the
mounting bracket.
Note:
Do not over tighten the screws.
If the enclosed screws do not fit the junction box, use the screws attached to the junction box instead.
When mounting the bracket to a standard US junction box, use the holes on the top and bottom side.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable inside the junction box to an RJ45 plug. Then connect the
cable to the ETH0 (PoE IN) port. Position the Ethernet cable to ensure it is not strained.
Note:
If the junction box does not have enough room to accommodate the EAP, replace the junction box with
an open‑end junction box or a deeper one.
4. Attach the EAP to the mounting bracket by aligning the two mounting studs on the
mounting bracket with the large openning of the slots on the EAP. Press and slide the EAP
down until it locks into place.
