• Attach the cables to the sides of the OmniAccess AP.
Note: Make sure the cables are routed away from the OmniAccess AP antennas.
Note: When the OmniAccess AP is powered up and is associated with an Alcatel OmniAccess
Wireless Switch or Appliance (Green/Power and Yellow/802.11b/g and/or Yellow or Amber/
802.11a LEDs lit), the OmniAccess AP is broadcasting its beacon signal(s). When this
happens, complete the installation as quickly as possible to remove yourself from within
8 inches (20 cm) of the OmniAccess AP to comply with FCC RF radiation exposure guidelines.
You have installed the OmniAccess AP. Repeat Step 4: Mounting the OmniAccess APs

When you are mounting the OmniAccess AP out from a wall (flat sides along the wall or hallway), use
an optional separately-orderable factory-orderable projection-mount L-bracket.
• Before proceeding, gently screw the two factory-supplied screws and spring washers into the
bottom of the OmniAccess AP. Make sure the spring washers have their convex (high center
sections) pointing toward the screw heads.
Note: The OmniAccess AP threaded holes have precision-depth threads. Do not overtighten
the screws, or the bracket will not fit under the screw heads.
