Mounting the AP using the WS-MBI-DCMTR01 Bracket

The optional WS-MBI-DCMTR01 (#30518) bracket can also be used for T-bar installations without the mounting bracket.
Pre-Installation checklist:
  • T-bar width must be 9/16” (15mm), 15/16” (24mm), 1.5” (38mm).
  • T-bar minimum base thickness: N/A; must be structurally sound.
  • T-bar maximum base thickness is 0.118” (3mm).
  • T-bar can have a maximum protrusion of 0.625” (15.8mm).
  • Maximum protrusion of the ceiling tile can be 0.625” (15.8mm).
  1. Remove the ceiling panels around the drop ceiling T-bar rail.
  2. Open the movable sliding part of the T-bar to give the stationary and slider T-bar more space.
  3. Hook the stationary end of the T-bar bracket onto the T-bar.
  4. Tilt the T-bar up slightly in such a way that you are holding the stationary and movable sides of the bracket. 4 Squeeze the bracket parts together until you hear the T-bar locking tab click into place.
  5. Slide the T-bar ceiling mount bracket base into the back of the access point. The locking tab fits into a groove in the outside of the AP.
