Installation Guidelines for the Cisco Active GPS Antenna

The antenna must be placed so that the radome has a clear site to just above the horizon and a clear view of the horizon.

Antenna performance can be adversely affected by the surrounding environment such as physical obstructions or radio
frequency (RF) interference.

Avoid mounting the antenna next to a column or vertical support that could create a shadow zone and reduce the coverage
area.

Keep the antenna away from reflective metal objects that block cellular signal and make reception poor, such as heating
and air conditioning ducts, large ceiling trusses, building superstructures, and major power cabling runs. If necessary, use
an extension cable to relocate the antenna away from these obstructions.

If installing the antenna indoors, make sure it is near a window.
NOTE: The Cisco logo and product ID are printed onto the GPS-ACT-ANTM-SMA antenna radome. Position the antenna as
shown in the Figure 2.
