Before Getting Started

Select a location as close as possible to the center of the intended coverage area.

The service location should be free from obstructions or obvious sources of

interferences. Normally, the higher you place an access point or air monitor, the

better its performance will be.

Use the following specifications to determine the proper clearance in your

intended location.

The AP 65 dimensions (HxWxD) are:

With antenna stowed: 100mm x 100mm x 37mm

3.94 x 3.94” x 1.47”

With antenna fully extended: 167mm x 100mm x 37mm

6.58” x 3.94” 1.47”

AP 65 unit weight is: 0.227 kilos

0.5 lbs

Secure Wall Mounting

The AP-65-MNT mounting cradle can be used to mount the AP 65 directly to a

wall, ceiling, underneath a counter, or similar flat surface. Two screw holes on the

mounting cradle support installation of the cradle directly onto a pre-installed,

in-wall, NEMA-style gang box.

To mount the AP 65 to a wall, ceiling, or similar flat surface:

1. Insert the Fast Ethernet (FE) cable through the hole in the mounting cradle,

then attach the mounting cradle to the surface using the appropriate

fasteners (not included) or the screw holes on the in-wall gang box.

If necessary, attach an RJ-45 male connector to the FE cable.

2. (Optional) Align and attach the AP security T-bar to the AP 65 as shown (see

Figure 1).

The security T-bar deters theft of the AP 65 when installed in areas where

security cannot be guaranteed. It is not required for mounting the AP 65.

3. Insert the FE connector into the FE port.

4. Align the AP 65 with the mounting slots as shown in Figure 1. Push the AP

onto the mounting tabs to secure the AP 65 in place.

5. If you are using the security T-bar, secure the T-bar to the mounting cradle

with the security T-bar screw.

6. Orient the antennas for optimal performance. Typically, the best results are

achieved when the antennas are oriented vertically.

Mounting To A Ceiling Tile Rail System

The AP 65 enclosure supports an integrated 15/16” ceiling tile rail guide slot,

designed to snap onto standard 15/16” tile rails (the use of this kit for this

purpose is not required).

To mount the AP 65 to a ceiling:

1. Pull the Fast Ethernet (FE) cable through a prepared hole in a ceiling tile at the

location where you want to install the AP 65.

2. Insert the FE cable into the FE port on the rear of the AP 65.

3. Align the AP 65 with the appropriate ceiling tile rail, engaging the rail at

approximately a 30 degree angle (see Figure 2).

Figure 2 Engaging the ceiling tile rail

4. Make sure the FE cable will retract into the ceiling area allowing the AP 65 to

fit flush against the ceiling.

5. Pushing gently against the ceiling rail, twist the AP 65 clockwise until the AP

and the rail click into place (see Figure 3).

6. Orient the antennas for optimal performance. Typically, the best results are

achieved when the antennas are oriented vertically.

Caution: Make sure the AP 65 clicks into place on the tile rail. Failure to

securely engage the ceiling rails into the built-in ceiling tile rail

slots on the rear of the AP 65 could cause it to fall and

possibly injure people or equipment.
