BELGIAN SHEPHERD
Installation Instructions
The Belgian Shepherd PRO Series antennas are rugged,
high-performance, 5G, CAT18 (600 MHz to 6 GHz)
antennas, available with up to 4x4 MIMO LTE, up to 4x4
MIMO WiFi, CBRS, LTE LAA, and GPS/GNSS. The Belgian
Shepherd PRO Series antennas are IP67- rated antennas
and perfect for mobile and fixed wireless applications.

Mounting Preparation

Selecting Mounting Location

- For best performance it is important that the antenna be mounted on a conductive panel.
- Select the mounting location such that it is at least 18 inches or as far as possible from the other roof mounted
items like antennas, light bars etc. to avoid any de-tuning or interference issues.
- Make sure there is enough clearance under the panel and there is no cross braces or double skin panel under the
mounting location.
- Measure to check for central position if applicable.
- Remove the headliner under the marked location to avoid damaging it.

Importance of Mounting on a Flat Surface

A clean, flat, and level surface is recommended to install the antenna to properly seal the gap between the antenna
and mounting surface. If the antenna must be mounted on a curved or a ridged surface use the appropriate Parsec
gaskets for mounting the antenna. (sold separately).
