To mount the bracket to a wall:

1. Using the mounting bracket as a guide, choose a location where it is feasible to place the AP‘s center. If the RJ45 connectors on the rear of the AP will be used, the location must allow LAN cables to come out of the wall within the large, rectangular hole. Place the bracket against the wall. (The captive screw will be used to lock the AP in place.) Decide which two holes to use to mount the bracket to the wall. We recommend that the two holes be on opposite sides of the large, center opening.
2. Mark the two hole centers.
3. For drywall/plasterboard walls, drill two holes using a 1/4” or 6mm diameter drill bit.
4. For drywall/plasterboard walls, screw the plastic anchors into the holes.
5. Attach the wall plate bracket using the two wood screws. Torque the screw to 9.0 in-lbs.
6. Connect the LAN/power to the AP.
7. Attach the AP to the mounting bracket.
