Mount the AP to a Junction/Gang box

About this task

You can mount the access point to a junction/gang box using the #37201 stainless-steel main mounting bracket that comes with the unit or a WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket, which must be purchased separately.

Note

The junction/gang box models are limited to USA box models when using the #37201 main mounting bracket.

Procedure

Remove the screws holding the junction/gang box coverplate and remove the LAN cable from the coverplate if necessary.
Line up the #37201 main mounting bracket holes on the junction/gang box and ensure that they align.
If the holes do not align, then use the WS-MBI-WALL04 bracket.
Note
When you line up the holes, the locking tab on the WALL04 bracket must be pointing up and the junction/gang box must be fully covered by the bracket. The bracket must be square to the rest of the room walls and the two holes that are being used must be on the opposite side of large center hole on the WALL04 bracket.

Note
If the holes that you need to use are not near the corners of the WALL04 bracket, break off the corner to decrease bracket‘s visibility once the access point is installed.
Using the holes aligned together or the new ones drilled, attach the bracket to the junction/gang box using the screws removed from the junction box earlier.
Do not over tighten.
Caution
Over tightening the screws will cause the WALL04 bracket to bend. If the bracket bends, you will not be able to align and slide the access point onto the keyhole posts.
Connect the Ethernet cable to the access point.
Align the keyhole slots and posts and slide the access point onto the bracket until you hear it lock in place.
