Upgrade from UAP-PRO The design of the UAP-AC-PRO Mounting Bracket facilitates upgrades from the UAP-PRO, by eliminating the need to drill new holes in the wall or ceiling tile. The following illustrations show the Mounting Bracket holes that are used for the UAP-AC-PRO and UAP-PRO: Mounting Bracket Holes (4) for UAP-AC-PRO Mounting Bracket Holes (3) for UAP-PRO To begin the upgrade, perform the following steps: 1. Insert a paper clip into the UAP-PRO Locking Notch to disengage the lock.
Hardware Installation The UniFi AP can be mounted on the wall or ceiling. Perform the steps for the appropriate installation: Wall Mount 1. Position the Mounting Bracket at the desired location on the wall with the Arrow pointing up. 2. Mark the four mounting holes, and use a 6 mm drill bit to drill the holes. If your Ethernet cable feeds through the wall, cut or drill a circle approximately 18 mm in diameter. Then feed the CAT5/6 cable through the hole.
3. Insert the Screw Anchors into the 6 mm holes. Secure the Mounting Bracket to the wall by inserting the Screws into the anchors. Note: If upgrading from the UAP-PRO, secure the new Mounting Bracket to the wall using the existing holes. 4. Remove the rubber port cover from the UniFi AP.
5. If the Ethernet cable runs along the mounting surface, skip to step 6. If the Ethernet cable is fed through the wall or ceiling, insert the Cable Feed Plug. 6. Feed the Ethernet cable through the port cover. Note: The feed hole will stretch to accommodate the RJ45 connector, and then seal around the cable. 7. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Main port and replace the port cover.
8. Align the Notch on the top edge of the UniFi AP with the Arrow on the Mounting Bracket. Notch Arrow Lock Tab 9. Rotate the UniFi AP clockwise until the tabs lock into place and the Lock Tab engages.
Ceiling Mount 1. Remove the ceiling tile. 2. Place the Ceiling Backing Plate in the center of the ceiling tile. Mark the four mounting screw holes and an 18 mm hole for the Ethernet cable feed. 18 mm Hole for Ethernet Cable Feed 3. Use a 3 mm drill bit to drill the screw holes, and cut or drill the hole for the Ethernet cable feed.
4. Insert the Flat Head Screws through the Mounting Bracket, ceiling tile, and Ceiling Backing Plate (see note below). Fasten the screws using the Keps Nuts. Then feed the Ethernet cable through the tile and bracket. Note: If upgrading from the UAP-PRO, insert the Flat Head Screws through the new Mounting Bracket, the ceiling tile, and the Ceiling Backing Plate. (Either re-use the UAP-PRO Ceiling Backing Plate or replace it with the new UAP-AC-PRO plate.
5. Insert the Cable Feed Plug. 6. Remove the port cover from the UniFi AP, and then feed the Ethernet cable through the port cover. Note: The feed hole will stretch to accommodate the RJ45 connector, and then seal around the cable. 7. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Main port and replace the port cover.
8. Align the Notch on the top edge of the UniFi AP with the Arrow on the Mounting Bracket. Arrow Lock Tab Notch 9. Rotate the UniFi AP clockwise until the tabs lock into place and the Lock Tab engages. 10. Set the ceiling tile back into place.
Powering the UniFi AP The UAP-AC-PRO features auto-sensing 802.3af/802.3at PoE support and can be powered by any of the following: • Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Switch with PoE • 802.3af/802.3at PoE+ compliant switch • Ubiquiti Networks Gigabit PoE Adapter (48V, 0.5A) The single-pack of the UAP-AC-PRO includes one Gigabit PoE adapter. For multi-pack units, PoE adapters or a UniFi Switch with PoE may be purchased separately.
Connecting to a PoE Adapter 1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the device to the POE port of the Gigabit PoE adapter. 2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN to the LAN port of the Gigabit PoE adapter. 3. Connect the Power Cord to the adapter, and then plug the Power Cord into a power outlet. Mounting the PoE Adapter (Optional) 1. Remove the PoE Mounting Bracket from the adapter, place the bracket at the desired location, and mark the two holes. 2.
