Example
For example, the maximum gain that can be configured on an IAP with AP-ANT-1F dual-band and omni-
directional antenna is as follows:

Frequency Band
2.4–2.5 GHz
4.9–5.875 GHz
For information on antenna gain recommended by the manufacturer, see www.arubanetworks.com.
Configuring Antenna Gain
You can configure antenna gain for IAPs with external connectors by using the Instant UI or the CLI.
In the Instant UI
To configure the antenna gain value:
1. Navigate to the Access Points tab, select the IAP to configure, and then click edit.
2. In the Edit Access Point window, select External Antenna to configure the antenna gain value. This
option is available only for access points that support external antennas,
3. Enter the antenna gain values in dBm for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
4. Click OK.
In the CLI
To configure external antenna for 5 GHz frequency:
(Instant AP)# a-external-antenna <dBi>
To configure external antenna for 2.4 GHz frequency:
(Instant AP)# g-external-antenna <dBi>
Configuring Radio Profiles for an IAP
You can configure a radio profile on an IAP either manually or by using the Adaptive Radio Management (ARM)
feature.
