AIR-AP-BRACKET-1. This bracket can be mounted flush on a flat surface or
directly onto a ceiling, on grid-work.

mounting bracket (AIR-AP-BRACKET-1) on a ceiling constructed of 19.05 mm
(3/4-in.) or thicker plywood by using appropriate fasteners.
Follow these steps to mount the access point on a solid ceiling or wall.
