The equipment supports ceiling or wall mounting at heights > 2 m. The recommended parts for them are as follows:
– Plastic anchor: Inner diameter: 2.4 mm; length: 26.4 mm
– Screw: i9/i21: PA314 mm, head diameter: 5.2 mm
i24/i25/i27/i29: BA325 mm, head diameter: 6.0 mm
Ceiling mounting
-
Optional) Remove the bracket from the AP.

Tips:
Option A below applies to most general cases. For ceilings with weak strength (such as plasterboard) and APs provided with plastic nuts, please choose Option B.
Option A: Knock the plastic anchors into the holes using a rubber hammer. Align the screw holes in the bracket with the holes in the ceiling, and use the included screws to fix the bracket. Option B: Align the plastic nuts with the holes in the ceiling, and then use the included screws to fix the bracket. -
Connect a CAT5 or better cable to the PoE/LAN port of the AP for further use. Connect a PoE switch to the PoE/LAN port or a power adapter to the power jack of the AP for power supply.

Supplying power to your APs
Method 1: Power the AP with a standard PoE power supply device
Tips:
The AP supports power supply through standard PoE devices. For details about
power supply standards, see the sticker on the AP.
Method 2: Power the AP with a power adapter
The AP supports the power supply through the DC power jack (if available).
If the power adapter is not included in the package, please prepare it
yourself. Power supply parameters can be viewed on the sticker of the AP. For
the interface specification of the power adapter, see the Quick Installation
Guide of the corresponding product.
i24 is used as an example in the following figure.
