•Mounting Using Ceiling Brackets
•Mounting Using Anchor Screws
Mounting Using Ceiling Brackets
The SonicWave 432e comes with a ceiling mounting bracket and screws. This section describes how to use the
mounting hardware to attach the SonicWave to the ceiling or an indoor wall.
Ceiling Bracket(1)
The underside of the orginal SonicWave 432e has two insertion points where you can insert the provided screws to
help secure the bracket. You can use these insertion points to attach the large bracket to the SonicWave 432e.

Safety and Regulatory Information
Bracket(3)
The SonicWave 432e comes with a mounting bracket so it can be mounted on the ceiling or other flat surface. This
section describes how to attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling or an indoor wall. The mounting bracket provides
two pairs of T-bar locking tabs that support two ceiling T-bar widths: 15/16 inch and 9/16 inch. For mounting on a
flat surface, holes in the T-bar clips on the bracket provide insertion points for screws. Use #6 (3.5mm) zinc plated
pan head machine screws (sheet metal screws) of length 1.25 inches (31.75 mm). When mounting on drywall,
anchors should be used. Anchors must accommodate the screws and be rated to hold at least 10 lbs (4.5 kg).

To attach the mounting bracket(3) to the ceiling using T-bar clips:
1. Press the top side of the mounting bracket against the ceiling tile T-bar so that the T-bar locking
tabs on the mounting bracket are depressed.
2. T-bar clips on the mounting bracket and the T-bar locking tabs click into place.
To attach the SonicWave 432e to the mounting bracket :
1Line up the two mounting bracket attachment slots on the bottom of the SonicWave 432e with the
mounting tabs on the mounting bracket.
2Insert the mounting tabs into the SonicWave 432e and slide the access point sideways until the locking
tab on the bracket clicks into place on the SonicWave.
NOTE: To detach the SonicWave from the bracket, press on the locking tab to
release it, then slide the SonicWave in the reverse direction to free the mounting
tabs.

Mounting Using Screws
To mount the SonicWave 432e using screws:
1Measure the distance between the two screw attachment points on the underside of the SonicWave.
2On the mounting surface, mark the locations for the two screw insertion points. The marks should be
horizontally parallel to each other.
3Drill starter holes at the marked locations. For a wood surface, use a drill bit that fits the screws. For
drywall, use a drill bit that fits the anchors.
4For drywall, screw in the anchors.
5Insert the screws into the wall or anchors, and screw them in deep enough to leave minimal space
between the screw heads and the wall surface.
6Supporting the SonicWave in your hands, securely fit the underside slots of the SonicWave onto the
screw heads.

Connecting PoE & Network Cables
This section describes how to connect the PoE and network cables to the SonicWave 432e. For best results, first
connect the cables and then mount the SonicWave to the ceiling or wall. The SonicWave 432e is powered by a
power adapter or by Power over Ethernet (PoE) (both sold separately). SonicWall recommends using CAT 5e cables
to connect PoE to the access point.
CAUTION:
When using PoE to power the device, an 802.3at compliant PoE injector, PoE enabled
switch, or SonicWall PoE enabled appliance is required to provide power to each SonicWave 432e.
To maintain power to the SonicWave 432e, the maximum length of CAT 5e cable from the PoE device
to the SonicWave 432e is 100 meters (333 feet).
To connect the SonicWave 432e to PoE and the network:
1Using an Ethernet cable, connect the Data in port on the PoE Injector or switch to an interface on your
network device. If using a SonicWall firewall, connect it to an existing WLAN zone interface on the
firewall or to an unused interface to be configured later in SonicOS.
2Using a second Ethernet cable, connect the Data and Power Out port on the PoE injector to the lan1
port on your SonicWave 432e. This provides your main Ethernet and PoE connection.
Refer to your POE guide for more information.
3Plug the power cord of the PoE Injector into an appropriate power outlet.
4Wait up to two minutes for the lan1 LED on the SonicWave 432e to illuminate. This indicates an active
connection.
5Optionally connect the lan2 port to an additional Ethernet connection.
6Optionally connect the console port using an RJ45 to DB9 cable, for command line management.

Installing SonicWave 432e Antennas
To install the antennas on your SonicWave 432e:
1Remove all eight antennas from their bags and place one on each connector.
2Carefully finger‐tighten the fittings.
3Adjust the antennas upright for optimal reception.
4For optimal wireless coverage, the SonicWave 432e antennas should be oriented vertically. The
circular design of the SonicWave aides in creating a strong multi‐directional wireless signal pattern. In
most cases, leaving the antennas straight up (as shown in the illustration) provides the best overall
coverage.
TIP: There might be a “dead” zone directly underneath the SonicWave 432e
when it is mounted on a ceiling with the antennas oriented vertically. You can
mitigate this by slightly angling the antennas.
CAUTION: Only antennas provided by SonicWall are authorized for use with the SonicWave 432e. Be
aware of the regulations in your region before using other antennas.
