The AP300 ships with a detachable mounting bracket. The AP300 is designed to be compatible with
brackets supplied by Meru and by other vendors. The AP300 mounts directly on the AP150 mounting
bracket. If you are replacing AP300s, the AP300 bracket can be mounted on the old AP300 bracket with
included shoulder screws; you don't need to remove the old brackets. AP300 can also be directly
mounted on third-party brackets. You can mount an AP300 in the following ways:
Mount AP300 Horizontally on a Shelf
Mount AP300 Vertically on a Wall
Mount AP300 Below a Suspended Ceiling
