Option 2: Mounting the AP to the Wall using two screws

The AP-7632i can be mounted directly onto the wall without the mouting bracket by using two screws.
  1. Remove the mounting bracket attached to the back of the AP.
  2. Drill two holes 104mm (4.100") apart from each other on the wall.
  3. Insert the screws into the holes. Use the screw-in anchors if needed.
    Note

    Note

    Leave 1/8" gap between the screw head and the wall.
  4. Insert the Ethernet cable‘s RJ45 connector into the GE1 port. Attach the optional DC adaptor if there is no PoE on the Ethernet cable.
  5. Insert the keyholes of the AP onto the screws and slide it down till it is firmly held by the screw heads. If the AP is loose, unmount the AP and decrease the distance between the screw head and the wall. Remount the AP.

  2. Hold the AP to the surface to which it needs to be attached and use the optional bracket‘s end holes as a template to mark the attachment holes.
  3. Drill two holes on the wall where you want to mount the AP.
  4. Connect the LAN/Ethernet cable to the back of the AP.
  5. Hold the AP, insert and tighten the 2 screws until you lock it into place.

Option 4: Using an Optional Wall and Box Bracket

The AP-7632i can also be mounted to a flat ceiling or wall using an optional wall and box bracket. This requires the WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket (ordering part Number 30516) which needs to be purchased separately.
  1. Remove the mounting bracket from the back of the AP.
  2. Install the WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket on a wall/ceiling with the two screws and screw-in anchors.
    • Use the WS-MBI-WALL04 as a template and mark the holes to be used to mount the AP. It is recommended to use the holes marked "A" or "B".
    • Drill the holes and attach the bracket using the screws and screw-in anchors.
    Note

    Note

    When using the "A" or "B" holes, if the holes are not near the corners of the bracket, you can break off the corner to decrease the bracket's visibility once the AP is installed.
  3. Connect the LAN/Ethernet cable to the AP.
  4. Insert the AP onto the keyhole posts and slide the AP.
  5. Lock the AP into place at about 1/4 inch.
