Mounting Strategies
Consider the available mounting structures and antenna clearance when choosing a
mounting location. Wavion outdoor unit WBS-2400/5800 should always be mounted with
the top of the unit parallel to the ground, and with the antennas pointing upward and
clear of obstruction.
It is recommended to attach ground and data cables to the WBS-2400/5800 prior to
mounting. Before mounting the WBS-2400/5800, read the wiring instructions in
Grounding the Wavion WBS-2400/5800
on page 22.

demonstrate acceptable options for mounting on a streetlight. In both cases
the WBS-2400/5800 is mounted to ensure clearance for the antennas above the height of
the streetlight.

Note
: The WBS-2400/5800 should be mounted with at least 4 ft/3 Meter of
clearance around the antennas to eliminate potential interference from the
mounting structure.
