Your VigorAP can be fitted to walls or ceilings and with the cable entry being

from behind or from the side. Due to the optimized signal pattern, we do not

recommend placing the VigorAP horizontally on a desk or shelf. Run your cables

before you fit the VigorAP or bracket to the ceiling/wall.

-m

For a wooden ceiling, you can use self-tapping screws to fix the mounting

bracket without any other fixings. The screws go through the bracket and then

directly into the wood; no ‘wall-plug’ fixing needs to be used

For ceilings made of

plasterboard, you can use the

self-tapping fixings. Hold the

bracket up to the ceiling to mark

the locations for the screw holes

with a pencil then set the

bracket aside.

Hammer the fixings lightly to

allow the sharp end to penetrate

the plaster and start the hole,

then gently screw the fixing into

the plasterboard with a manual,

not electric, screwdriver (seek

professional help if you are not

experienced with these fixings).

For solid ceilings (e.g. concrete) you will need to assess and provide appropriate

fixing hardware; this is not included with the product.

Warning: The screw set shown below is for wall mounting only. Do

not use it for ceilings as it may not provide adequate support.

With all types of fixing, during installation, always use appropriate

personal safety protection and check for visible or hidden hazards (cables,

joists, pipes) before drilling or fixing.

Consult a qualified installer if you are not experienced.

Install the supplied screws into the back of the AP. These special screws protrude

from the back of the AP, leaving a bayonet type fitting to attach to the bracket:

Lift the VigorAP up to the bracket and connect up the power and Ethernet cables.

Line up the fixing screws and gently rotate the AP in order that the bayonets

connect and ensure a comfortable fit into the slots.

(

)

You cannot screw into ceiling tiles as they are weak and not suitable for bearing

loads. Your VigorAP is supplied with mounts (T-Rail brackets) which attach

directly to the metal grid (‘T-Rail’) of your suspended ceiling.

1. Choose one set of T-Rail mounts to suit the size (gauge) of your T-rail.

2. Fix the mounts into the underside of the VigorAP with the supplied

screws:

3. If a larger gap is required between the ceiling and the VigorAP, use the

extension pieces to extend the height of the brackets.
