Chapter 2: Installation
Hardware Installation
The UniFi AP-Mini is powered by the included PoE (Power over Ethernet) adapter. To install the AP, perform the following steps:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the UniFi AP-Mini.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the PoE Adapter.
Mounting the Access Point
The UniFi AP-Mini can be wall mounted or mounted on a ceiling. Perform the following steps for the appropriate installation:
Wall-Mount
1. Position the Mounting Bracket at the desired location on the wall. Orient the mounting plate with the arrow facing up.
2. Use a pencil to mark the three holes on the wall.
3. Use a 6 mm drill bit to drill the holes in the wall.
4. Insert the three screw anchors into the wall.
5. Secure the Mounting Bracket to the wall by inserting the self tapping screws into the anchors.
Note: If you plan to mount the AP on the ceiling,
perform the ceiling mount installation steps before connecting the Ethernet cable to the PoE Adapter.
3. Connect the PoE Adapter to your router or switch and connect the power adapter to a power outlet.
6. Align the two notches on the AP with the notches on the Mounting Bracket.

7. Turn the AP clockwise until it locks into place.
8. Rotate the center logo to the desired position.
6. Secure the Mounting Bracket to the ceiling tile by feeding the three flathead screws through the ceiling tile. Support the Mounting Bracket with the washers and Keps nuts on the top side of the ceiling tile.
Ceiling-Mount
1. Remove the ceiling tile.
2. Position the Mounting Bracket in the center of the ceiling tile.
3. Use a pencil to mark the three holes on the ceiling tile.
4. Use a 3.5 mm drill bit to drill holes for the flathead screws.
5. Cut or drill a circle approximately 25 mm in size that lines up with the large hole of the Mounting Bracket. This will be used to feed the Ethernet cable through the tile.
7. Feed the Ethernet cable through the hole in the Mounting Bracket and ceiling tile.
