Mounting the access point using the Main Mounting Bracket with KT-135628-01 adaptor to a flat T-bar

About this task

Mounting the access point to a suspended or a drop ceiling requires the optional adaptor (Universal Mounting Kit for WLAN APs; # KT- 135628-01). The adaptor requires a flat t-bar and fits a ceiling tile with up to a 0.35” protrusion from the bar.
Pre-Installation checklist:
  • T-bar width can be either 9/16” (15 mm) or 15/16” (24 mm).
  • T-bar bottom must be flat all the way across.
  • T-bar minimum base thickness: N/A; must be structurally sound.
  • T-bar maximum base thickness: 0.055”. Due to manufacturing variation, some adaptors may be able to accommodate up to 0.060”.
  • Ceiling tile may protrude up to 0.3" below the T-bar.

Procedure

  1. Attach the KT- 135628-01 adaptor by lining up the small bends on the adaptor with the long raised parts on the main bracket, pull up on the adaptor‘s locking pin, and twist.
    Make sure the locking pin goes into the locking pin hole on the main mounting bracket and locks in place.
  2. Slide the T-bar holder onto the T-bar and replace the tiles to hold the adaptor onto the T-bar.
  3. Hold the access point and rock it back and forth to ensure that it is securely mounted.
  4. Attach the Ethernet cable‘s RJ45 connector to the LAN1 port.
