How to install HPE Mounting Bracket for Wireless Access Point

• Prepare the mounting surface by ensuring it is structurally sound and capable of supporting the AP’s weight. Confirm that the surface is clean and free of debris, and identify whether you will mount to a ceiling grid, a solid ceiling, or a wall.
• Attach the bracket base to the chosen surface using the provided fasteners or appropriate anchors for the substrate. Use level tools to ensure the base is straight, as proper alignment affects AP performance and cable routing.
• Route power and data cables through the bracket’s channels or channels of your choice, keeping cables organized and away from moving parts. If possible, pre-route cables to minimize rework after the AP is mounted.
• Mount the wireless access point onto the bracket’s interface, aligning it with the compatible mounting pattern. Secure the AP using the supplied screws or fasteners, ensuring a snug fit without over-tightening that could damage components.
• Adjust the AP orientation for optimal coverage. Use the bracket’s tilt and swivel adjustments to aim the antenna(s) toward areas with the greatest coverage needs, then lock the position with the provided knobs or fasteners. Verify stability and re-check cable routing after positioning.
