Securing the Access Point Using a Security Cable
Securing the Access Point Using a Security Cable
You can secure the access point by installing a standard security cable (such as the Kensington MicroSaver,
model number 64068) into the access point security cable slot (see Figure 2-3). The security cable can be
used with any of the mounting methods described in this guide provided the cable can be secured to a
nearby immovable object.
Follow these steps to install the security cable.
Step 1 Loop the security cable around a nearby immovable object.
Step 2 Insert the key into the security cable lock.
Step 3 Insert the security cable latch into the security key slot on the access point.
Step 4 Rotate the key right or left to secure the security cable lock to the access point.
Step 5 Remove the key from security cable lock.
Step 6 Repeat Steps 1 to 4 for each access point requiring a security cable.
After securing your access points, go to the “Connecting to an Ethernet Network with an Inline Power
Source” section on page 2-18.
Connecting the Ethernet and Power Cables
The access point receives power through the Ethernet cable or an external power module.
