injector or PoE switch for both power and network
connectivity.

(OPTIONAL) MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The ZoneFlex R300 can be mounted to a wall, ceiling or to a
T-bar using the supplied mounting screws or the T-bar clips
built into the bottom of the AP enclosure.
Mounting to a Flat Surface
1 Use this Quick Start Guide template to mark the locations
for screw holes on the mounting surface. Use a 5mm drill bit
to drill approximately 25mm into the mounting surface.
2 Insert the anchors and mounting screws into the mounting
surface, leaving approximately 1/4” (6 mm) of the screw
heads protruding for the AP enclosure.
The screws should be approximately 3.25” (82.6mm) apart
per the template.
3 Insert the pin removal tool into the hole on the side of the
AP (
Figure 1.), to release the locking mechanism.
Figure 1. Insert the pin removal tool into the pinhole
4 Place the AP onto the mounting screws so that the screw
heads enter the mounting holes on the AP enclosure, and
push the AP (to the left or down depending on orientation)
to lock in place.
5 Remove the pin removal tool to release the lock mechanism
and secure the AP.
6 To unmount, insert the pin removal tool into the hole on the
side of the AP to unlock, then push the AP (to the right or up,
depending on orientation) to release the AP enclosure from
the mounting screws.
Mounting to a T-Bar
1 Orient the AP so that the T-bar is positioned between the T-
bar clips as shown in
Figure 2., then rotate the AP until the
third T-bar clip catches the T-bar and the latch locks the T-bar
in place (
Figure 3.).
Figure 2.
Figure 3.
2 For added physical security, use a Torx screwdriver to insert
the security screw into the hole shown in Figure 3.
3 To remove the unit, first remove the security screw, then
depress the latch while rotating the AP so that the T-bar clips
disengage the T-bar.
FOR MORE INFORMATION
For information on how to configure the AP from the Web
interface, refer to the Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex Access Point
User Guide or the Online Help, available from within the
Web interface.
NOTE: If you will be using PoE, you will need a Cat 5e (or
better) Ethernet cable to connect the AP to the PoE injec-
tor or switch.
