LABRADOR
Installation Instructions
Parsec's Labrador is a compact two-in one MIMO LTE external
antenna. This unobtrusive omnidirectional antenna works on
all the common North American LTE bands with high efficiency.
The Labrador is optimized for attachment to a sheetrock wall in
an office environment. It is ideally suited to indoor applications
where a higher performance alternative to screw on antennas is
required. The Labrador has an IP65 ingress protection rating and
may also be mounted outdoors.
CHOOSING THE BEST METHOD AND LOCATION FOR INSTALLATION
To get the best signal, your antenna must be mounted in an isolated area. It is important
to stay away from any interference including existing antennas, cluttered areas, or other
