Legacy Open Mesh: How Do I Install the OM-Series Ethernet Enclosure?

Question

How do I install the OM-Series Ethernet Enclosure?

Environment

• OM-Series Ethernet Enclosure

Answer

The OM Series Ethernet Enclosure allows you to replace any single-gang data port with a secure access point, while retaining an Ethernet passthrough for voice/IP Phones, etc (any wired client device that uses DHCP). The result is a professional, functional and secure installation, with the access point completely hidden inside, powered by passive or 802.3af POE (depending on the model).

To install, simply mount the backing plate to the single-gang box (replacing the cover), attach the enclosed cable adapters, clip the access point into place and close the cover. If you have a second data port or phone line, snap the cable into the enclosure. If not, snap in an enclosed blank plug. To open, simply insert and remove the enclosed key.
