Above the Ceiling Tiles

The AP 3600 and 3700 are rated for installation in the Plenum area (UL-2043). Many customers prefer to locate the AP so that
nothing can be visible on the ceiling. In some cases this is preferred for aesthetic reasons, so customers may install the AP
above a drop ceiling. This also may be preferred in high theft areas such as classrooms or in areas where policy dictates that
nothing can be visible on the ceiling.
When this is a hard requirement, optional T-Bar hangar accessories from third-party companies, such as Erico and Cooper, can
be used (Figure 21). The Erico Caddy 512a, the Cooper B-Line BA50a, or similar T-Bar Grid T-Bar hangars can be used.
