1) If not attached already, attach the bracket to the AP at [A] using the
included Bracket Screws.
2) Lift the AP with the bracket facing the drop-ceiling and position the
Studs [B] on the bracket slightly offset from either side of the T-bar.
3) Gently turn the AP clockwise until the Studs slip over the T-bar and
both Clasps [C] snap in place against the T-bar.

4) Insert the factory-supplied anchors and mounting screws into the
mounting surface, leaving approximately 6 mm (1/4”) of the screw
heads protruding for the AP bracket.
5) Place the AP and bracket onto the mounting screws so that the
screw heads enter the Keyholes [D] on the AP bracket and gently
push down.
Making the Connections
Be sure to use a Cat 5e or better Ethernet cable with non-booted
connectors (see Figure 4). If using PoE, attach one of the Ethernet
cable to an 802.3at Type 2-certified switch or PoE injector (sold
separately). Attach the other end of the Ethernet cable to the leftmost
Ethernet port [E] on the AP as shown in Figure 5. If using an AC/DC
adapter, connect it to the power port [F] in Figure 5 and to an
electrical outlet.

Note: In order to properly support its weight, make sure that the AP is
mounted at the intersection of two rails and not along a single rail!
4) To un-mount the AP, simply press down on the two Clasps [C] and
gently turn the AP counter-clockwise until it comes off.
Mounting on a Flat Surface
The factory-supplied mounting screws and plastic wall anchors allow
you to attach the AP to a wall or ceiling.
1) Attach the bracket to the AP using the included Bracket Screws.
2) Use the Mounting Template on the last page of this Quick Setup
Guide to mark the locations for two drill holes on the mounting
surface.
3) Use a 4.75mm (3/16”) drill bit to drill holes approximately 25mm (1”)
deep into the mounting surface.

Check the LED Lights
Once connected, the AP will power on and automatically connect to
the Ruckus Cloud over the Internet to configure itself. You will see
some activity and after 2-5 minutes all lights should turn solid Green
or solid Amber. If any light is off or flashing, see the following table for
troubleshooting:
PWR Check Power, Ethernet connections and PoE switch
EMS Check Internet connection and network settings
EPC Check Internet connection and network settings
SYNC Make sure one of the APs in the network is near a window
LTE Use the Ruckus Cloud for additional guidance
For More Information
The AP is now operational and can be further managed by the Ruckus
Cloud service. For more information refer to the appropriate Ruckus
