Antenna Cable Recommendation
Whenever practical/possible, ensure that the antenna cable runs as short as possible. Cisco offers low loss (LL) and ultra low loss
(ULL) cables, which have the same characteristics as Times Microwave LMR-400 and LMR-600.
Cisco cables carry the part number AIR-CAB (Aironet Cable) and its length parameter. For example, a 20 Ft length of LL cable with
RP-TNC connector is Cisco AIR-CAB-020LL-R. These heavy black cables are not Plenum rated and are primarily for outdoor use
or manufacturing areas.
