Alternatively, use the optional mounting bases and/or brackets to mark
the wall or ceiling locations for sheet metal, drywall, or other screws.
Make sure you leave enough space around the UNIVERGE WL AP and
brackets to plug the CAT-5 cable, optional external antenna cable(s),
optional power supply cable, and optional Kensington MicroSaver
Security Cable into the sides of the UNIVERGE WL AP.

Factory-Orderable Mounting Brackets
If necessary, drill holes for the various cables where they can be mostly
hidden from casual view. When you are mounting the UNIVERGE WL AP
using a projection-mount L-bracket (the one with two long legs) the
cables can be routed through the 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) holes in the
bracket.
Route the CAT-5, optional power supply, optional external antenna
cable(s), and optional Kensington MicroSaver Security cables to where
they can plug into the UNIVERGE WL AP. Make sure to leave about
6 inches (15 cm) of slack in the cables for future modifications.
Attach the brackets to the wall or ceiling, or install screws for ceiling-
mount base:
-
Where you are going to use the projection-mount or flush-
mount bracket, use customer-supplied sheet metal, drywall, or
other screws to attach the bracket to the ceiling or wall.
-
Where you are going to use the ceiling-mount base, install
customer-supplied sheet metal, drywall, or other screws with 1/
4 inch (6.35 mm) or smaller heads protruding from the ceiling
about 0.1 inch (2.5 mm).
You are now ready to install the UNIVERGE WL APs. Continue with
