Mounting the Access Point

CAUTION: When you are planning to connect external 5GHz antennas to the AP, mount

the AP so the external antennas are pointing up.

1. Collect the following items:

• Bracket mounting kit (see “

Mounting Kit Contents” on page 16)

• When required, a loop-and eye safety cable (refer to “Appendix A: Ruckus Wireless-

Supplied and Customer-Ordered Parts” on page 59)

If you are mounting the AP on a flat surface, then you will also need:

• Customer-supplied wall anchors rated to withstand 128 N or 28.8 lbf (required to

withstand wind loads of 266km/h or 165mph)

• Tools required by the customer-supplied wall anchor kit

If you are mounting the AP on a pipe or pole, then you will also need:

• A 30mm to 60mm (1.18" to 2.36") pipe or pole

• Two steel clamps (supplied with the AP)

• 10mm flathead screwdriver

WARNING: Ruckus Wireless strongly recommends that you wear eye protection before

drilling holes on the mounting surface.

1. Place the hanger mount at the exact location on the mounting surface where you want

to mount the AP.

NOTE: If you do not have the hanger mount available, you can use the hanger mount

template in “

Appendix C: Installer Mounting Dimensions” on page 71.

2. Use the screw holes on the hanger mount as a template to mark the locations of the

mounting holes.
