Please review the following guidelines before installing the access point on
a wall or ceiling:
The selected location must not block the ventilation slots around
the base of the unit. Refer to Figure 3.
The wall or ceiling mounting surface must be of proper material to
accommodate the self-tapping screws, such as wood strong
enough to support the weight of the equipment and cables.
Otherwise, you must provide anchors to fit the mounting surface.
One mounting-bracket screw is provided for attaching the
mounting bracket to the unit. You must provide the four self-
tapping screws that secure the base plate to the wall or ceiling.
The location must have an AC power source if you are using the
AT-TQ0091 Power Adapter.
