Once you have gathered all the required equipment, follow these steps to mount the MR84 access point:
- Identify the ideal location for the access point based on your network requirements.
- Using the mounting bracket and screws provided, securely attach the access point to your chosen location. Ensure that the access point is mounted at an appropriate height for optimal signal propagation.
- Connect the Ethernet cable from the PoE switch to the access point, ensuring a reliable power source.
Step 3: Configuring the MR84 Access Point
With the access point mounted, it is time to configure the device to meet your specific network requirements. Follow these steps:
