Installing Sonicwave 432O Antennas; Available Antennas For The Sonicwave 432O - SonicWALL SonicWave 200 Series Deployment Manual

Installing SonicWave 432o Antennas

IMPORTANT: This device must be professionally installed using either the supplied antennas
or with approved alternate antennas available from SonicWall.
Install the external antennas (or approved alternates) intended for area coverage. The SonicWave 432o features
dual concurrent radio signals. Use the 2.4 GHz antennas to access Radio 1 (802.11 b/g/n at 600 Mbps) signals,
and the 5 GHz antennas to access Radio 2 (802.11 a/n/ac at 1733 Mbps) signals. You should use all eight WiFi
antennas to utilize both radio frequencies concurrently.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the SonicWave 432o, all RF output ports must be attached
to an approved antenna before the radios are enabled.
To install the antennas on your SonicWave 432o:
1 Remove all eight antennas from their bags and place one on each of the appropriate connectors,
matching the radio signals marked on the antennas to those marked above the connectors.
2 Insert the antenna base firmly into the antenna mount.
3 Carefully finger-tighten the fittings being cautious not to over-tighten them.
4 Repeat with the remaining antennas.
