1.1 Determine whether the network cable will be routed into
the enclosure through conduit or surface raceway.
Remove the appropriate knockouts.
For Conduit - Remove knockout “A”, “B” or “C”. This
double knockout accommodates either 1/2" or 3/4"
conduit.
For Surface Raceway - Remove knockout “D” or “E”.
This opening accommodates PANDUIT LD10 surface
raceway.
1.2 Determine the antenna type that will be used. Remove
the appropriate knockouts.
If 2.4GHz Standard Dipole Antennas will be used with
the Wireless Access Point (WAP) - Remove knockouts
“F”.
For Externally Mounted Antennas - Remove knockouts
“G”. An antenna patch cord (not included) is required
for this application.
1.3 Locate the wall studs. Position the enclosure on the wall
and identify which keyed knockouts should be removed.
It is recommended that two of the mounting holes be
aligned with the wall stud. Wall anchors (not included)
should be used for each additional mounting hole
chosen by the installer. Remove desired knockouts.
1.4 To view the LED lights on the WAP when the enclosure
door is closed, remove knockout “J”. Refer to figure 1
on page 5 for location of knockout “J”.
Optional: Flexible grommet edging can be used to cover
knockout edges if desired.

1. Knockout Removal
1.1 Remove knockouts in desired cable entry location:
For Conduit - Remove knockout “A” or “B”. This double
knockout accommodates either 1/2" or 3/4" conduit.
Without Conduit - Remove knockout “A” or “B”.
Remove the 1/2" diameter opening.
1.2 Determine the antenna type that will be used. Remove
appropriate knockouts.
The flush wall mount application is optimized for use
with the 802.11a 5GHz paddle type antenna. It is not
necessary to remove any knockouts if this antenna
type is used.
Note: Please refer to the antenna reference guide
provided by the manufacturer of the wireless access
point to identify the appropriate antenna configuration if
the 802.11b or 802.11g radio modules on the WAP will
be used.
1.3 Each sidewall of the enclosure has four small
knockouts that can be removed to allow 1/4" screws
(not included) to secure the enclosure to a stud inside
the wall. Determine which side of the enclosure will be
secured to the stud and remove the knockouts on that
sidewall.
1.4 To view the LED lights on the WAP when the enclosure
door is closed, remove knockout “J”.

3.1 Place one of the Ceiling Mount Brackets against any
side wall of the enclosure with the flanged edge facing
away from the enclosure. The top of the flanged edge
should be even with the enclosure door.
3.2 Fasten the bracket to the base of the enclosure using
four of the supplied #6-32 Flat Head Screws.
3.3 Repeat steps for remaining 3 Ceiling Mount Brackets.
Step 3: Install Ceiling Mount Brackets 3
4.1 When the enclosure will be mounted in a suspended
ceiling, a square hole that is approximately 12 1/2" x 12
1/2" must be cut in the ceiling tile.
4.2 It is important that the hole be no smaller than 12 1/4" x
12 1/4" and no larger than 12 3/4" x 12 3/4". This will
ease installation and prevent visible gaps around the
enclosure once installed.
Note: The bottom edges of the assembled enclosure
brackets can be used as a guide to trace the square
hole size onto the ceiling tile.

(8 places)
Step 5: Install Enclosure to Ceiling
5.1 Hanger wire should be used to hang the enclosure
within a suspended ceiling. Important: Verify hanger
wire meets local building code. Weight of enclosure
and WAP does not exceed 8 lbs.
5.2 Observe how the hanger wire used to hold the ceiling
support grid is secured to the building structure.
5.3 Remove one tile adjacent to the tile the enclosure will
be mounted in.
5.4 Secure four pieces of hanger wire (not included) to the
building structure. The hanger wire length will be
determined by the installer based on the building
structure dimensions above the suspended ceiling.
Extend the length of the hanger wire beyond the
surface of the ceiling by at least 6".
5.5 Add the cut ceiling tile back to the ceiling support grid.
5.6 Pull one of the four pieces of hanger wire to one corner
of the square opening in the ceiling tile. Pre-bend the
hanger wire at a 90° angle approximately 2 1/2" above
the surface of the ceiling tile. Repeat this step for the
remaining 3 hanger wires measuring to the three
remaining corners of the square opening.
5.7 Insert the enclosure into the cut ceiling tile opening.
5.8 While holding the enclosure flush with the surface of
the ceiling tile, route the hanger wire through one of the
eight 3/8" dia hanger wire mounting holes and bend up.
Pull the wire upward until the enclosure is flush with the
ceiling tile. Repeat this step using the three remaining
hanger wires to secure the three remaining corners of
the enclosure.
5.9 Visually inspect the edges of the enclosure to verify no
gaps exist between the mounting brackets and surface of
the ceiling tile. If gaps exist, pull the hanger wire upward
until the enclosure is tight against the ceiling tile.
5.10 To secure the enclosure, wrap each hanger wire tightly
around itself a minimum of three times.
5.11 Replace the adjacent ceiling tile.

8.1 Route the network cable to and into the enclosure.
Important: When mounting the enclosure in the ceiling,
it is recommended that an excess length of network
cable be stored outside of the enclosure when conduit
is not used. The length of cable placed outside the
enclosure above the ceiling should be long enough to
allow the enclosure to be removed from the ceiling for
maintenance without cutting the network cable from the
Cat5e jack that will be installed in the next step. This is
necessary because the Cat5e jack cannot be removed
through a 1/2" conduit knockout.
8.2 Terminate the Cat5e Jack Module to the network cable.
Refer to the PANDUIT website for jack termination
instructions if needed.
8.3 Mount the base of the 2 Position Surface Mount Box to
the back wall of the enclosure using provided double
sided tape.
8.4 Snap the terminated jack into position “1” of the box.
Place the network cable between the two cable
retention tabs on the back of the base.
8.5 Remove the breakout tab on the back of the cover.
8.6 Snap the cover onto the base.
Note: A second Cat5e Jack Module can be installed in
position “2” of the surface mount box to provide
access to the serial port on the WAP.
6.1 Run cable from the Telecommunications Grounding
Busbar (TGB) to the enclosure and attach to the
grounding stud on the base.
6.2 Using supplied Grounding Cable, attach one end to the
grounding stud on the base (on top of the TGB cable)
and the other end to the grounding stud on the door.
6.3 Secure with the #10 Split Lock Washers and #10-32
Hex Nuts.

Note: Fire Resistant Foam used when network cable is
routed into the enclosure without the use of conduit in
flush wall mount and in-ceiling mount applications.
9.1 Place two pieces of fire resistant foam into the foam
retention bracket. Both pieces should be underneath
the network cable and the ground cable.
9.2 Place the remaining two pieces of fire resistant foam on
top of the cables.
9.3 Press down on the foam and slide the foam retention
plate into place. The expanding foam holds the
