Installing AP832i
Use the optional T-bar box hanger mounting kit to mount AP832i above suspended ceiling T-rails. The
installation attaches the T-bar box hanger to the ceiling rails and then the AP832i attaches to the T-
bar box hanger. Note that AP832i mounted above the ceiling has about 2-3 dBm less RF coverage than
AP832i mounted under the ceiling.
You may need to modify thicker tiles to support this installation.
To mount an AP832i above the ceiling with the optional T-bar kit, follow these steps:
1. Determine the location on the ceiling rails where the AP will be mounted and remove the ceiling
tile.
2. Unpack the T-bar hanger kit.
3. Attach the mounting bar (depicted in Figure 16) to the mounting brace (which looks like a small
handle) with the crossbar of the mounting kit sandwiched between them. See Figure 17.

Warning!
When installed in air-handling spaces, such as above a suspended ceiling,
power the AP832i only with a PoE, not a power supply.
