You actually answered a question I meant to include, but I didn’t ask .. how are people doing wall mounts. That issue just popped up this morning. I’ll keep this on file for those instances. Thanks!

We also use the Oberon mount and are happy with that. This camera mount attaches to a single gang box and has a pass thru for the cable. My picture does show the pass thru well but the link below does. http://www.securityideas.com/pa89pathjstm.html Jimmy University of Michigan On Aug 26, 2016 5:55 PM, "Lionel Shigemura" <lio...@hawaii.edu<mailto:lio...@hawaii.edu>> wrote: A local Aruba vendor has made some custom 2-gang cover plates modified with a tile grid type piece for another Campus. Just mount the adapter plate and clip the AP similar to a ceiling grid. It was custom piece at a "decent" price, but can't recall exactly. I've used various Oberon products and they're really nice. We have some older bldgs with plenum ceiling that use a steel frame grid with integrated supply ducts. No standard grid for clip usage. I've used the Aruba AP-220-MNT-W1 and Aruba AP-220-MNT-W2 using screws and zip ties. If the W2 is too costly, a cheaper options we entertained was to modify the included grid clip adapter and screw it into the steel plate. The latter solution was really difficult to remove so we didn't use it. For walls, I prefer this solution until I find something better. #1011-00 http://www.oberoninc.com/products/right-angle-brackets I contacted Oberon's competitor and their similar model didn't have a knockout for cable pass-through and had some differences. This was shortly after Atmosphere. Wasn't worth the cost when we had to modify to make it work.

Specifically for Aruba APs like the 325 (or the 220). We've found the AP-220-MNT-W2, but if you get a lot of them, it gets costly quick.
