Mounting Plate The Mounting Plate offers a variety of mounting holes for different applications. The legend printed on the Mounting Plate identifies the holes used for each application. Upgrade from UAP-AC-PRO The UAP-AC-SHD is compatible with the UAP‑AC‑PRO mounting hardware, so you only need to remove the UAP‑AC-PRO and replace it with the UAP-AC-SHD. To begin the upgrade: 1. Insert the Release Tool into the UAP-AC‑PRO Security Slot to disengage the lock.
Hardware Installation The UniFi AP can be mounted on a wall, ceiling tile, drop ceiling T-rail (up to 40 mm), or electrical junction box. Perform the steps for the appropriate installation. Note for UniFi AP replacement: The holes marked “A” on the Mounting Plate line up with the holes of mounting brackets used for previous UniFi AP models. Wall Mount 1. Position the Mounting Plate at the desired location on the wall with the Arrow pointing up. 2.
3. Insert the Screw Anchors into the holes. Secure the Mounting Plate to the wall by inserting the Wall Screws into the anchors. 4. Go to the Connecting Ethernet section, and then return to step 5. 5. Align the Arrow on the top edge of the UniFi AP with the Arrow on the Mounting Plate.
6. 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.
3. Use a 3 mm drill bit to drill the screw holes, and cut or drill the 18 mm hole for the Ethernet cable feed. 4. Insert the Ceiling Screws through the Mounting Plate, ceiling tile, and Ceiling Backing Plate. Fasten the screws using the Keps Nuts. Then feed the Ethernet cable through the tile and bracket.
5. Perform the steps in the Connecting Ethernet section, and then return to step 6. 6. Align the Arrow on the top edge of the UniFi AP with the Arrow on the Mounting Plate. Arrow Lock Tab Arrow 7. Rotate the UniFi AP clockwise until the tabs lock into place and the Lock Tab engages. 8. Set the ceiling tile back into place.
T-Bar Mount 1. Remove the ceiling tiles on both sides of the T-bar you will use for mounting. 2. Loosen the set screws of the T-Bar Mounts. 3.

Attach the second T-Bar Mount but do not tighten the set screws.
5. Use the two dashed lines on the Mounting Plate to space the T-Bar Mounts 77 mm (3") apart. 77 m m 6. Tighten the two set screws on the second T-Bar Mount.
7. Insert the included T-Bar Screws into the holes marked “B” on the Mounting Plate, and then secure the plate to the T-Bar Mounts. 8. Drop the Ethernet cable between the plate and T-bar.
9. Perform the steps in the Connecting Ethernet section, and then return to step 10. 10. Align the Arrow on the top edge of the UniFi AP with the Arrow on the Mounting Plate. Arrow Lock Tab Arrow 11. Rotate the UniFi AP clockwise until the tabs lock into place and the Lock Tab engages. 12. Set the ceiling tiles back into place.
Junction or Outlet Box Mount 1. Use the legend printed on the Mounting Plate to select the appropriate mounting holes for your installation. 2. Pull the Ethernet cable through the Mounting Plate, and attach the Mounting Plate to the junction or outlet box using at least two screws (not included). Note: For in-wall applications, position the Mounting Plate with the Arrow pointing upwards. 3. Perform the steps in the Connecting Ethernet section, and then return to step 4.
4. Align the Arrow on the top edge of the UniFi AP with the Arrow on the Mounting Plate. Arrow Arrow Lock Tab 5. Rotate the UniFi AP clockwise until the tabs lock into place and the Lock Tab engages.
Connecting Ethernet 1. Remove the rubber port cover from the UniFi AP. 2. If the Ethernet cable runs along the mounting surface, skip to step 3. If the Ethernet cable is fed through the wall or ceiling, insert the Cable Feed Plug. 3. 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. 4. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Main port and replace the port cover. Return to the appropriate instructions.
Powering the UniFi AP The UAP-AC-SHD features auto-sensing 802.3at PoE+ support and can be powered by any of the following: • Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Switch with 802.3at PoE+ • 802.3at PoE+ compliant switch • Ubiquiti Networks Gigabit PoE Adapter (48V, 0.5A) The single-pack of the UAP-AC-SHD includes one Gigabit PoE adapter. For multi-pack units, PoE adapters or a UniFi Switch with 802.3at PoE+ may be purchased separately.
Connecting to a PoE Adapter 1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the UniFi AP to the POE port of the Gigabit PoE adapter. 2.
