    Mounting options You can mount the AP to a solid surface (a wall or a ceiling) or to a ceiling with a 15/16 in. (23.8 mm) T-bar. We recommend that you use a flat Ethernet cable so that the cable fits in the narrow space between the AP and the surface on which it is mounted. Before you mount the AP, we recommend that you first set up and test the AP to verify WiFi network connectivity and coverage. NOTE: If you are mounting the AP on a ceiling, follow the instructions on how to mount the AP on a wall.
