Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Before Beginning the Installation
• Do not mount the access point outside of buildings.
• Do not mount the access points on building perimeter walls unless outside coverage is desired.
• When mounting an access point in the corner of a right-angle hallway intersection, mount the access
point at a 45-degree angle to the two hallways (see Figure 2-1). The access point internal antennas
are not omnidirectional and cover a larger area when mounted this way.

•
Ensure that the access point is on the same subnet as the primary, secondary, or tertiary controllers
or has a DHCP server on the subnet with a route to the controllers.
