Mounting your DWL-1700AP

A brief overview on mounting your DWL-1700AP

The DWL-1700AP can be mounted on the side of a building or mounted to a mast as shown in the

picture above. A wall (side) mount allows for mounting the DWL-1700AP on the side of a

building. This will provide a convenient mounting location when the roof overhang is not

excessive and/or the location is high enough to provide a clear line of sight.

A safe grounding system is necessary to protect your DWL-

1700AP from lightning strikes and the build-up of static

electricity when installed in an outside environment. So direct grounding

of the antenna mast, DWL-1700AP and Surge Arrester is very important. So

when mounting the DWL-1700AP on an antenna mast, you have to connect

the DWL-1700AP to the same grounding system with the AC wall outlet.

The grounding system must comply with the National Electrical Code and

safety standards that apply in your country. Always check with a qualified

electrician if you are in doubt as to whether your outdoor installation is

properly grounded.
