noise (such as the microwave).
The installation position should be hidden as much as possible to prevent
disturbing the inhabitants.
Strictly forbid to install the AP in the environment with hydrocephalus , seepage,
water-clock and condensation. And us er should avoid the water flowi ng into the
device along the cable.
If there is outdoor cable, please check if installed the network port SPD beside the AP,
the network port SPD should be provided by user.
3.4 Install 7942AP(R5) and 7962AP(R5)

AP first and then install the AP on the wall mounting bracket.
(1) Connect the AP to the wired LAN by using the cable
Make the AP wall mounting kit flat against the wall and mark the hol es t hat t he crews
needs to be installed into, and then punch four holes with t he impact drill;
Insert the expansion bolt into the holes and use the rubber hammer beating it until the
expansion bolt got into the wall completely;
Correspond the screw holes to the expansion bolt holes on the wall, and make the
crews pass through the installation holes of the wall mounting kit;
Lock the wall mounting kit to the wall.
