  • 1.  Aruba Access Point-503: mounting bracket?

    Hello,

    according to the AP-503 datasheet the access point is shipped with a mounting bracket. Unfortunately I cannot find any more information about it. How does it look like? Can I attach the AP-503 securely to a wall with it? Unfortunately I cannot find more information about it within the  Aruba Documentation Portal. 

    Best Regards

    From the image on https://www.arubanetworks.com/products/wireless/access-points/indoor-access-points/503-series/ I can see the mounting for the AP 503 is the same as for the AP 1xx/2xx/3xx series:

    The AP seems to come with the AP-220-MNT-C1 ceiling rail mount kit. For flat surface mounting, one of the optional mount kits as listed in the ordering guide should be ordered. Note that there is a 10-pack available for the AP-503 that reduces packing material, makes the unpacking easier (less boxes to open) and comes with a free console cable.

    Note that the AP 503 is designed to be ceiling mounted. If you mount it vertically on a wall, the antenna diagram is likely to be suboptimal. Your Aruba partner can probably advise you for the best deployment of the Aruba APs.

    This is what it comes with as Mounting Bracket: AP-MNT-A

    So its a Ceiling Rail (must be 9/16).

    Based on how wall mount, i would recommend you to purchase: AP-MNT-E which is a wall box

    AP-MNT-E

    They wouldn´t fit because AP-503 comes with the same mounting system as AP-1xx,2xx or 3xx.

    The ones you recommend are for AP Series 5xx and 6xx.
