2 Installing the ICX420GAP Series AP
ICX420GAP Series can be installed indoor using one of two methods:
Wall hanging installation
T-keel installation
Wall Installation
To mount the Access Point on the wall, use the supporting expansion screw tubes and
screws for wall mounting. The expansion screw tubes and screws can be found in the
accessory bag.
When installing using the wall mounting method, please connect the Ethernet cable
to the AP first BEFORE mounting the AP on the wall bracket.
1. Connect the AP to the wired LAN by using the cable
2. Mark the all positions of two rear holes on the AP making sure they line up. The
distance between the holes is 65 mm (2.55 inches). Then punch out the two holes
with the impact drill;
3. Insert the expansion bolt into the holes and use a rubber hammer to make sure the
expansion tube is seated properly into the hole.
4. Screw the screws in the two plastic expansion screw tubes. Please do not screw
them in the tubes completely, leave up to 3-5 mm (.2 inches) away from the wall;
5. Line up the two rear holes on the AP with the wall screws.
6. After hanging the AP, push the AP down to lock the AP on the wall. The installation
steps are shown below:

ICX420GAP Manual

Punch and nail on the wall Stuck the AP on the screws Complete the installation
Ceiling or T-keel Installation
1. The T-keel will support a width between 12mm to 30mm (.5 to 1.1 inches)
2. This installation method applies to the T-keel a n d no other kinds of keels.
The T-keel mounting kit includes two plastic mounting kits and two fixed screws,
included in the accessory bag.
ICX420GAP series AP provides two kinds of mounting kits whose width are 15cm
and 24cm. The client can choose the right mounting kit according to the actual
installation scenario. The steps are as below:

ICX420GAP Manual
10
Step 1: Choose the right mounting kit according to the width of the T-keel and use the
two fixing screws to fix the mounting kit on the AP as below:
Step 2: Close the mounting kit of the AP to the T-keel as below:
Step 3: Turn the AP counterclockwise to close to the T-keel and make the two
diagonal slots of the mounting kit latch to the T-keel. At the same time, the two elastic
stoppers on the mounting kit will lock to the T-keel. The complete installation is shown
below:

ICX420GAP Manual
11
Connecting AP Power
ICX420GAP series indoor AP supports local power or power via a PoE device.
Users can choose the method according to the actual network environment.
Validation check before powering on the AP
After installing the AP, the user should check the device before powering on for the first
time:
If using local power for the AP, please ensure the power is connected and
grounded.
When AP is used with an IEEE 802.3af/at standard PoE power source,
please ensure the power is connected per manufacturer’s specifications.
Power-over-Ethernet and Ports
User can use the Ethernet cable to connect the Ethernet interface of the AP and the
switch which supports PoE function to power to the AP.
ICX420GAP series adopts the 802.3af/802.3at PoE power supply. When the USB is not
used, it adopts the 802.3af PoE power supply; if the USB is i n use, it i s
m a n d a t o r y t o u s e 802.3at PoE power source. The device provides two Ethernet
interfaces of LAN1 and LAN2. Only LAN1 provides PoE power function as shown below.
The marks of the two interfaces are LAN1 and LAN2 respectively. When the network
cable is plugged in, please plug the PoE cable in the LAN1.
The ICX420GAP provides a web network management function to configure the unit. The
administrator can use the web interface to manage and maintain the network devices.
