engage the clips. You will need to move the bracket up and away from the AP to clear the top "hook" clips. 4. Once the bracket has been completely removed from the AP, position the bracket over the wall plate and install two screws (not included) as shown. Adjust the bracket over the 6 wall plate box before tightening the screws. Slide the bracket up or down along the screws in the slots to the desired location. Be sure to cover any gaps in the wall. 5. Tighten screws to secure bracket to wall plate. Do not over-tighten. Over-tightening may cause the bracket to bend. 6. Before installing the AP to the bracket, connect all necessary cabling to the ports on the back of the AP. 7 Install the AP onto the mounting bracket by visually aligning the top "hook" clips to the small raised bumps on the top edge of the AP. For additional visual alignment reference, use the edges of the bracket which line up with the outside vent holes on the AP. 7. 8 9 8. Move the AP up slightly until you feel the top hooks slide into the receiving holes on the back of the AP. Once the top hooks are engaged, push gently on the bottom, front of the AP to engage the bottom hooks. You should feel the clips lock into place. 9. Tighten the captive screw to secure the AP to the bracket. 10 A Additional Notes Maximum EIRP The transmit EIRP is the sum of the conductive transmit power, IEEE Std 802.11n multiple stream effect, and the antenna gain. By default, Meru AP122 EIRP is set lower than the regu-
latory limit with the default antenna. Dual Concurrent Same Band Operation With grant of additional regulatory approval and Permit-but-Ask, users may configure two radios in AP122 on the same band (i.e., both radios are on the 2.4 GHz but in the different or same channels, and both radios are on the 5.x GHz but in the different or same channels). However, user shall expect performance deterioration due to RF collision and collocation inter-
ference. It is important that users adopt external antennas, with extended coaxial pigtail cables, with AP122 in such use case. User shall place antennas far apart to reduce interfer-
ence. Meanwhile, user shall also reduce AP122 transmit power, for each radio, by at-least 3 dBm from its default setting. Manufacturing Information The AP122 models are built in China. Contact Meru Networks for manufacturing related infor-
mation. Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) Meru Networks does not certify or endorse any specific Distributed Antenna System (DAS) vendors. Meru Networks will provide support to Meru Wi-Fi customers that use distributed antennas within the terms and conditions of the MeruAssure Terms of Service and in accor-
dance with the customer's support agreement. Meru Customer Support will support Meru soft-
ware and hardware, and will work jointly with DAS vendors to identify and troubleshoot issues, but any support related to RF issues, including RF coverage, shall be the responsibility of the DAS vendor. Maximum EIRP 11 Meru Networks recommends that customers use only a DAS that has been tested to work with Meru hardware and software. Meru does not provide any site surveys, design or implementa-
tion of Wi-Fi over DAS. Meru recommends that customers obtain such services from a trained and qualified systems integrator or from their DAS vendor.
