Installation Instructions
The AP 300 Access Port mounts either on a wall with wide-shoulder screws or on a suspended
ceiling T-bar. This unit is not designed for mounting on a desk.
To prepare for installation, perform the following steps:
1. Match the model number on the purchase order with the model numbers in the packing
list and on the case of the device shipped.
2. Verify that the contents of the box include the intended AP 300 Access Port and
mounting hardware:
3. Review site survey and network analysis reports to determine the location and
mounting position for the AP 300 Access Port.
4. Connect a CAT-5 cable to a compatible 802.3af power source and run the cable to the
installation site. Ensure that there is sufficient slack on the cable to perform the
installation steps.
Wall Mount
This mounting requires hanging the AP 300 Access Port along its width or length using the two
slots on the bottom of the unit. The AP 300 can be mounted onto any plaster, wood, or cement
wall surface using the provided wall anchors when necessary. The illustration shows a
lengthwise mount.
Item Notes
WSAP-5110-100-WW 802.11a/b/g configuration.
Mounting Hardware: Two wide-shoulder Phillips pan head self-tapping
screws.
Wall Mount Hardware
• Two wide-shoulder Phillips pan head self-tapping screws
• Two wall anchors
• Safety wire (recommended) and security cable (optional)
Note: In the event that the original mounting screws are lost, the following screws
can be used instead:`(ANSI Standard) #6-18 X 0.875in. Type A or AB Self-Tap-
ping Screw, or (ANSI Standard Metric) M3.5 X 0.6 X 20mm Type D Self-Tapping
Screw
Wall Mount Procedure
1. Orient the case on the wall by its width or length.
2. Using the arrows on one edge of the case as guides, move the edge to the midline of
the mounting area and mark points on the midline for the screws.
3. At each point, drill a hole in the wall, insert an anchor, screw into the anchor the wall
mounting screw and stop when there is 1mm between the screw head and the wall.
Note: When pre-drilling a hole the recommended hole size is 2.8mm (0.11in.) if the
screws are going directly into the wall and 6mm (0.23in.) if the provided wall
anchors are being used.
4. If required, loop a safety wire—with a diameter of at least .101cm (.04in.) but no more
than .158cm (.0625in.)—around the tie point and secure the loop.
5. If required, install and attach a security cable to the unit’s lock port.
6. Attach the Ethernet cable to the unit and to a switch with an 802.3af-compatible power
source.
7. Place the middle of each of the case’s mount slots over the screw heads.
8. Slide the case down along the mounting surface to hang the mount slots on the screw
heads.
