Hardware Installation

An electrical wall box should be pre‑installed with an Ethernet

cable running from the box to an 802.3af switch.

1. Detach the Cover Plate from the UAP-IW.

2. Connect the Ethernet cable in the wall box to the port

labeled PoE IN + DATA.

3. Place the UAP‑IW in the wall box and properly position the

cable to ensure the Ethernet connection is not strained.

Note: If the wall box does not have enough room

to accommodate the UAP-IW without straining the

Ethernet connection, replace the wall box with an

open‑end or deeper box.

4. Fasten the top and bottom screws. Adjust the screws to

ensure the mounting plate is flush with the wall for proper

fitting of the Cover Plate.

Note: Do not over‑tighten or rely on the force of the

screws to pull the UAP‑IW into the wall box.

5. Attach the Cover Plate. Press the Cover Plate into position

until the four mounting clips snap into place. If you are

using your own cover plate, secure it with two screws.
