Mounting The Ap-7131; Mounting The Access Point; Wall Mounting - Motorola AP-7131 Series Installation Manual

1. Connect the Power Injector to an AC outlet (110VAC to 220VAC).
2. Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the network data supply (host) and the Power
Injector Data In connector.
3. Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the Power Injector Data & Power Out connector
and the access point's GE1/POE port.
NOTE
Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet source (host) to the Power Injector and access
point does not exceed 100 meters (333 ft).
The Power Injector has no On/Off power switch. The Injector receives power and is ready
for device connection and operation as soon as AC power is applied. Refer to the Installation
Guide shipped with the Power Injector for a description of the device's LEDs.

2.4 Mounting the Access Point

Both the AP-7131 and AP-7131N can attach to a wall, mount under a suspended T-Bar or above a
ceiling (plenum or attic) following the same installation instructions. Choose one of the following
mounting options based on the physical environment of the coverage area. Do not mount the access
point in a location that has not been approved in a site survey.

2.4.1 Wall Mounting

Wall mounting requires hanging the access point along its width (or length) using the pair of slots on
the bottom of the unit and the access point mounting template (on the next page) for the screws.
CAUTION
The hardware and tools (customer provided) required to install the access point on a wall consists of:
• Two Phillips pan head self-tapping screws
(ANSI Standard) #6-18 X 0.875in. Type A or AB Self-Tapping screw, or
(ANSI Standard Metric) M3.5 X 0.6 X 20mm Type D Self-Tapping screw
• Two wall anchors
• Wall mount template (included on the next page)
• Security cable (optional third part provided accessory)
Cabling a Power Injector to the WAN port (GE2 port) renders the AP
non-operational. Only use a AP-PSBIAS-1P3-AFR (or AP-PSBIAS-1P2-AFR)
Power Injector with the access point's GE1/POE (LAN) port.
An access point should be wall mounted to concrete or plaster-
wall-board (dry wall) only. Do not wall mount the access point to
combustible surfaces.
