Installing the RS4000
Mounting Above a Suspended Ceiling
The optional T-bar box hanger mounting kit allows the RS4000 to be mounted above
suspended ceiling T-rails (see Figure 11). The installation attaches the T-bar box
hanger to the ceiling rails using clips. The RS4000 attaches to the mounting bracket
that is attached to the T-bar box hanger.
Any Fast Ethernet (FE) cables installed in air-handling spaces should be suitable
under NEC Article 800.50 and marked accordingly for use in plenums and air-handling
spaces with regard to smoke propagation, such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP (Multi Purpose
Plenum), or CMP (Communications Plenum).
Figure 11: Mounting the RS4000 Above a Suspended Ceiling
To mount an RS4000 above suspended ceiling rails:
1. Determine the location on the ceiling rails where the RS4000 will be mounted and
remove the ceiling tile.
Note:
The RS4000 and its antenna meet the requirements for fire resistance and low
smoke-generating characteristics required by Section 300-22(C) of the National
Electrical Code (NEC) for installation in a building’s environmental air space.
Additonally, you must use Ethernet cable that meets the requirements for operating
in environmental air space (in accordance with Section 300-22(C) of the NEC).
