Install the AP300
Install Remote ACC-ANT-6ABGN-24 Antenna with Six Connectors
(optional)
You can optionally use an external antenna setup with your AP300 if the cont roller and APs are running
System Director 3.6.1MR4 and later. Meru supports this antenna for use on AP300s with two radios, for
example AP320. This antenna has six connectors to connect to both radios to a dual-radio AP300 and
it supports 802.11n MIMO operation.
The six cables on the ACC-ANT-6ABGN-24 antenna are already tagged with the numbers 1 - 6. Connect
the antenna cables to the AP antenna ports as shown here:
