convenient (and protected) power source.
• Alternatively, connect the 10/100/1000 port to a PoE
injector or PoE switch for both power and network con-
nectivity.
4Verify that the Power LED on the external enclosure is a
steady green.

(OPTIONAL) MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The ZoneFlex 7352/7372 can be mounted to a wall, ceiling or to
a T-bar using the supplied mounting screws or the T-bar clips
built into the bottom of the AP enclosure.
Mounting to a Flat Surface
1Use this Quick Start Guide template or the alignment spacer
to mark the locations for screw holes on the mounting sur-
face. Use a 5mm drill bit to drill approximately 25mm into
the mounting surface.
2Insert the anchors and mounting screws into the mounting
surface, leaving approximately 0.28” (7 mm) of the screw
heads protruding for the AP enclosure.
The screws should be approximately 3.25” (82.6 mm) apart
per the template.
3Insert a straightened paperclip (or similar) into the hole on
the side of the AP (Figure 1.), to release the locking mecha-
nism.
Figure 1. Insert a paperclip into the pinhole
4Place the AP onto the mounting screws so that the screw
heads enter the mounting holes on the AP enclosure, and
push the AP downward to lock in place.
5Remove the paperclip to release the lock mechanism and
secure the AP.
6To unmount, insert a straightened paperclip into the hole on
the side of the AP to unlock, then push the AP upward to
release the AP enclosure from the mounting screws.
Mounting to a T-Bar
The ZoneFlex 7352/7372 provides mounting options for flush tile
and recessed frame T-bars in acoustical ceiling tiles.
Flush Tile
1Orient the AP so that the T-bar is positioned between the T-
bar clips as shown in Figure 2., then rotate the AP until the
third T-bar clip catches the T-bar and the latch locks the T-bar
in place (Figure 3.).

latch to lock in place.
3To remove the unit, first remove the security screw, then
depress the latch while rotating the AP so that the T-bar clips
disengage the T-bar.
Recessed Frame
The enclosed T-bar clips support mounting to recessed frame
drop ceiling T-bars.
1Fasten T-Bar clips (included) to the T-Bar.
2Twist the two T-bar clips onto the acoustical ceiling T-bar.
Adjust the height of the anchor sleeves such that the anchor
heads extend just below the ceiling tile surface. Anchor
sleeves can be adjusted to accommodate frame recess
depths up to 6mm.
3Clip the alignment spacer between the two T-bar clip/anchor
sleeve assemblies.
4Insert a straightened paperclip (or similar) into the pinhole
on the side of the AP and hold in place while mounting (see
Figure 4.).
5Place the AP over the anchor sleeves such that the heads
enter the mounting holes on the AP enclosure, and slide the
AP to lock in place.
6Remove the paperclip to release the lock mechanism and
secure the AP.
7To remove the AP, insert a straightened paperclip into the
hole on the side of the AP to unlock, and then slide the AP
to release the AP enclosure from the mounting screws.

FOR MORE INFORMATION
You can now use the wireless network to log into the AP’s Web
interface. Use the Web interface to review and fine-tune a wide
range of AP settings. For information on how to configure the AP
from the Web interface, refer to the Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex
Indoor Access Point User Guide or the Online Help, available
from within the Web interface.
NOTE:
If the T-bar clips slide easily along the T-bar, use a piece of
Scotch tape or similar to secure them in place while mounting
the AP. The tape may be removed once the AP is mounted.
