ceiling or wall bracket, then swing the WAP down.

2 Using the supplied template, cut a 9.125” diameter circle

at the desired mounting location for your WK-2-C. Route
an in-wall Ethernet cable through the opening on the back
of the WK-2-C housing, then insert the WK-2-C into the
ceiling or wall.

3 Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten

the mounting ears. Use a clockwise
rotation.

Note: Do not use excessive force when

tightening the mounting ears. This can strip
the mounting ears and render them non­functional.

optional cable clip, if necessary.) Then, swing the WAP back into the WK-2-C housing.
