Step 8
Proceed with installing antennas (only for external antenna models), connecting the data cables,
grounding the access point, powering and configuring the access point.
You can use an exterior-grade plywood backboard to mount the access point to stucco, cement,
or drywall.
The mounting wall, attaching screws, and wall anchors must be able to support a 50-lb (22.7 kg)
static weight.
The access point should be mounted with the status LED on the base facing downwards.
