Suspended Ceiling Installation

You cannot screw into ceiling tiles as they are weak and not suitable for bearing loads. Your VigorAP is supplied with mounts (T-Rail brackets) which attach directly to the metal grid (‘T-Rail’) of your suspended ceiling.

  1. Choose the correct size T-Rail bracket from the bundled package.
  2. Put the T-Rail brackets on the holes of the bottom side of the device. Fasten them with suitable screws.
  3. Secure the access point firmly in place using the included screw as shown in step iii.
  4. Clip the access point onto your T-Rail using the now attached T-Rail bracket.DrayTek-VigorAP-1062C-802-11ax-Ceiling-Mount-Access-Point-13
  5. If a larger gap is required between the ceiling and the VigorAP, use the extension pieces to extend the height of the brackets.DrayTek-VigorAP-1062C-802-11ax-Ceiling-Mount-Access-Point-14
  6. Attach the T-Rail brackets to the ceiling frame. DrayTek-VigorAP-1062C-802-11ax-Ceiling-Mount-Access-Point-15
