This guide explains how to install an Aerohive AP350 5-GHz directional point-to-point antenna and connect it
to an AP350 access point. The AH-ACC-350-ANT-5 is an indoor dual-band lightweight antenna that is well
suited for applications where a 120° H-plane and a 70° E-plane are optimal. These antennas are typically
corner-mounted in pairs, facing each other and with no obstructions between them. This antenna can also
be used as a point-to-multi-point expansion device with a wide azimuth.

- Page 2 IRECTIONAL NTENNA To provide unobstructed RF coverage, mount the AP350 antenna so that it has at least a three-foot (one-meter) clearance from any nearby obstructions. For best coverage, these antennas are typically installed in pairs, directly facing each other, and with no obstructions between them.
- Page 3 Connecting the Antenna to the AP350 Connect each of the three antenna cables to a 5-GHz jack on the AP350, as shown in the illustration below. You can use 2.4 GHz antennas in addition to the 5-GHz directional antenna. Always install a 50-Ohm load terminator on any unused antenna connector.
