Cisco Deployment Guide Recommends Oberon Mounts for Aironet Series 2800/3800 Access Points
Cisco's new 2800 and 3800 Series 802.11ac Wave 2 access points offer unprecedented enterprise mobile networking performance. Oberon, a Cisco Solution Partner, is the leading manufacturer of mounting solutions and enclosures for Cisco access points.
Cisco's latest access point deployment guide recommends use of Oberon recess ceiling mounts for the new 2800 and 3800 Series access points.

Oberon's new 1040 Series recess mounts are designed to recess the access point partially into the ceiling, much like recessed lighting, exposing only the antenna face of the access point. This provides a secure, aesthetic, and professional installation, versus clipping the access point to the ceiling grid. Model 1040 Series styles are available for most types of ceiling, including suspended (drop) grid ceilings, cloud ceilings, hard (gyp-board) ceilings, new construction, and existing construction.
E-rate funding for schools and libraries has been adopted for 2017. Along with access points and other structural components of a wireless installation, Oberon mounts and enclosures are eligible for funding within the E-rate program.
In September 2016, the Wireline Competition Bureau of the FCC adopted E-rate proposals for 2017 and published a list of eligible services for 2017. The E-rate program, or Schools and Libraries Universal Service Support Program, includes funding for the internal connections needed for broadband connectivity.
Eligible equipment within Category Two includes:
Access points used in a local area network (LAN) or wireless local area network (WLAN) environment (such as wireless access points)
Antennas, cabling, connectors, and related components used for internal broadband connection
