Note: For simplicity, we will take EAP230-Wall for example throughout the Guide.
The EAP can be mounted into a wall junction box. The junction box should be
pre-installed with a running-in-wall Ethernet cable connected to a PoE switch.
Some common wall junction boxes:
LED
LAN Ports
86 mm wall junction box
Screwdrivers
A PoE switch
Standard EU wall junction box
Standard US wall junction box
1. Detach the faceplate of the junction box with a screwdriver (demonstrated
with an 86 mm wall junction box).
2. Detach the faceplate of the EAP with a screwdriver.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable inside the junction box to an RJ45 plug. Then
connect the cable to the PoE port at the rear panel. Position the Ethernet
cable to ensure it is not strained.
4. Insert the enclosed screws and tighten them with a 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.
5. Press the faceplate of the EAP back into position.
