Configuring the External Antenna Model
The MP-372 has connectors for attaching optional external 802.11a or
802.11b/g antennas. The 802.11b/g radios in MAP models MP-341 and
MP-352 have an internal antenna but can use an external antenna. The
MP-262 802.11b/g radio requires an external antenna.
All MP-3xx models use the internal antennas by default. The 802.11b/g
radio in an MP-262 uses external antenna model ANT-1060 by default.
Table 16 lists the external antenna models you can use with these MAPs.
Table 16 External Antennas
Model Type

ANT-5120 802.11a
(ASTN6T)
ANT-5180 802.11a
(ASTN6H)
ANT1060 802.11b/g
ANT1120 802.11b/g
ANT1180 802.11b/g
The numbers in parentheses are the numbers that appear on the back of
an 802.11a antenna's reflector plate. To verify an 802.11a external
antenna's model number, look for the number in parentheses.
To specify the external antenna model, use the following command:
set {ap port-list | dap dap-num} radio
{1 antennatype {ANT1060 | ANT1120 | ANT1180 | internal}
{2 antennatype {ANT5060 | ANT5120 | ANT5180 | internal}
To configure antenna model ANT1060 for an MP-262 on Distributed
MAP 1, type the following command:
WX1200# set dap 1 radio 1 antennatype ANT1060
success: change accepted.
