Verifying the AP3917i/e Box Contents
Verify the contents of the box and ensure that the following items are
available:
Mounting and Connecting the AP
Use these instructions as guidelines for mounting and connecting the
AP3917i/e easily and safely.
The AP3917i/e mounting brackets are sold separately.
For more information about installing the optional bracket and the adapter,
see the ExtremeWireless AP3917i/e Installation Guide.
For installation videos of the AP, see www.extremenetworks.com/support/.
Mounting the AP3917i/e
The installation of the AP3917i/e should be performed by a professional
installer to ensure proper operation and compliance with local safety
guidelines.
The access point can be mounted to a wall, girder, ceiling, pole or vehicle
using the appropriate bracket.
Positioning the AP for Installation
Mount the AP so that the glands are on the side of the AP closest to the
ground, and not above the plastic cover. You must provide a 3-inch drip loop
on all cables.
Attach the Ground Wire
Use the M4 ground screw assembly, with the star washer, to attach the
ground wire’s ring terminal to the back of the AP. The wire should be as close
to the AP bottom as possible. Tighten the screw to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-
lbs.
Mounting the AP3917i/e to a Wall
1 Using the mounting bracket as a guide, mark the location for the
mounting screws. The wall bracket provides eight attachment holes. Use
four (one in each corner), Place the bracket and mark the four hole
centers.
2 Drill four holes into the wall as follows:
82.4 G - Antenna 1 and 2
9Vent
10 5G - Antenna 1
11 BLE/802.15.4 Antenna
12 5 G - Antenna 2
Power Source Description
Power over
Ethernet
(PoE) Power is provided through the RJ45 Ethernet port (GE1 port).

The following hardware is included:
1 M4 screw assembly with star washer
1 Ring terminal
Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform
installation procedures.
Note: Do not remove the dust cap until you need to install the BLE/
IoT antennas.
Note: Attach the H bracket after attaching the ground wire onto the
AP. Once you tighten the torque, tighten the ground screws, and
attach the LAN cable.
Note: The “H” type Mounting Bracket (WS-MBO-H01) is sold as a
separate accessory (ordering part #30519).
– for installing the AP on a masonry wall, use a 5/16” diameter bit.
– for other materials, use the appropriate drill for the screws being used.
3 For masonry installations, drill at least 1/8” (3mm) past the depth of the
screw, or bolt, being used, and place four anchor assemblies into the
holes.
4 Attach the AP to the “H” Bracket:
a Use 4 M4 screw assemblies to attach the AP to the “H” bracket on the
side that does not have the PEM stand-offs.
b Tighten the four screws to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-lbs.
Figure 3 Attaching the “H” Bracket to the AP
5 Secure the anchors to the wall, then secure the bracket to the anchors.
6 If using #10 screws, tighten them to a torque of 25 in-lbs. If using ¼”
screws, tighten them to 45 in-lbs.
Figure 4 AP3917i/AP3917e Wall Mount “H” Bracket
Mounting the AP3917i/e to a Pole
1 Determine the diameter of the pole.
For other pole diameters, provide your own stainless steel cable clamp.
The band must be ½” (12.7mm) wide.
2 Attach the AP to the “Pole Mount” bracket using four M4 screws. Tighten
the four screws to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-lbs.
Figure 5 Attaching a Pole Bracket to the AP
3 Attach the cable clamp to the pole bracket. Open the cable clamp by
turning a flat bladed screwdriver counterclockwise. Then, insert the non-
clamp end into the pole bracket through the holes.
4 Put the metal band around the pole and insert it into the clamp. Turn the
clamp screw clockwise, tightening the band around the pole.
Note: The Pole Mounting Bracket (WS-MBO-POLE01) is sold as a
separate accessory (ordering part #30520).
Pole Diameter Cable Clamp Size
<= 2.5” (63.5mm) Use small cable clamp.
5” - 7” (178mm) Use large cable clamp
Note: It is easier to install both clamps before attaching to the pole.

Mounting the AP3917i/e to a Wall/Pole using
the WS-MBO-ART01 2 Axis Extension Arm
You can mount the AP3917i/e to a wall or a pole using a 10” extension arm
(WS-MBO-ART01, ordering part #30514). For mounting and installation
instructions, refer to the ExtremeWireless AP3917i/e Installation Guide.
Installing External Antennas
1 Professionally install the external antennas intended for area coverage.
For information about antenna selection and installation, refer to the
External Antenna Site Preparation and Installation Guide.
2 Attach the external antenna cables to the Standard Polarity Type-N
connectors on the AP3917i/e.
Connecting a Power Source to the AP3917i/e
If you need to power the AP3917i/e, you can do so my using the GE1 port on
the AP. The power LED on the front face of the AP illuminates when the device
is connected to a power source. Refer to the ExtremeWireless AP3917i/e
Installation Guide for information.
LAN/Console Connections
The AP3917i/e has one LAN (Ethernet) port and a Console port. Refer to
Figure 1 for the location of these ports. During administration and
maintenance through the LAN or Console, the AP must still have a power
connection through either an Ethernet PoE cable or a DC power supply.
