Aruba 500-series wifi access point velcro/ziptie mount

thingiverse

This is a velcro/ziptie mount for Aruba 500-series (and I believe 600-series as well) wireless access points. I needed a mount that could strap onto various surfaces (like ladder racks, cable raceways, conduits, etc) and the ones that Aruba sells were not sufficient to do so. It's designed to be as flexible as possible to allow for many different mounting methods and mounting points. It engages both the spring-loaded pin and the optional set screw on the access point to make the mount very secure. For the best strength this mount should be printed vertically with the tapered end of the "T" slot facing up. You will need to dial in your bridge settings or enable supports to get a clean print this way. It can be printed flat (with supports for the "T" slot) but you will lose a lot of strength in this orientation. Some of Aruba's access point models run hotter than others - you may need to print this with PETG or ABS to prevent it from deforming from heat.
