Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco 1810w Questions

2017-01-16 Thread Jake Snyder 
I learned something from one of my higher ed customers.  They put these 
inexpensive brass locks on their APs.  Not because they provide great 
protection, but because it simplifies any insurance claims if they are stolen.  
The $2 lock let them bypass a ton of paperwork and get funded for a replacement 
quickly.

If you are installing in any quantity, do the math on the cost of the locks. 
You’ll likely find that you can have a lot walk away (and be replaced) before 
equaling the cost of the locks.

If you do go the lock route, stick to the real Kensington locks. The knock-offs 
are easy to defeat.

Instead of the Torx, consider using a non-standard head e.g Pentalobe that is 
less likely to be in an off-the-shelf driver set.

I know some of you have been deploying these and I have a couple questions.

1. What is the size of the Torx screw that comes with the AP. Cisco 
documentation skips over that detail...

2. What Kensington style locks are you using?

I would appreciate the help as we are getting a few.

2017-01-13 Thread Becker, Jason 
We’ve installed hundreds of the 720’s and have not had to use locks on them at 
all.
I think the students realize this is their life line to the social world!

Kevin,

We used these for the Torx screws on the 1810Ws:

https://www.amazon.com/Mini-Torx-Security-Screwdriver-Tool/dp/B01BG8P2Q6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8=1469121273=8-1=tr6+torx+security+screwdriver

They work great.

We have not used any locks.  Our 1810Ws are going into student rooms where the 
policy is that the students are liable for any theft/damage.

Happy to share our experiences with the 1810Ws if you’d like to hit me directly.

I know some of you have been deploying these and I have a couple questions.

1. What is the size of the Torx screw that comes with the AP. Cisco 
documentation skips over that detail...

2. What Kensington style locks are you using?

The Torx is a size 6.  We’re mounting to the wall and haven’t needed the
Kensington locks.   We just deployed 750 and are happy.
