2. Connect the cable to the Ethernet port in the Q950.
3. Tighten the cable gland base into the Q950 chassis to 7 N.m or 62 in-
lbs.
4. Wrap the clamping ring assembly around the grommet. Make sure
that the clamping ring assembly fully encloses the grommet.
5. Seat the clamping ring assembly and grommet in the cable gland
base.
6. Tighten the cable gland dome to 0.79 N.m (7 in-lbs).
Connecting Antenna to the AP
When using the RUCKUS Q950 antenna (Part number: 902-Q950-ANT1),
connect the antenna per the instructions in the Antenna QSG. For third-
party antenna, ensure that cold shrink is inserted on antenna cables before
connecting them to the AP antenna port. Refer to
on page 4.

Mounting the GPS Antenna

The Q950 AP requires an external GPS signal. The AP does not provide
power to the GPS antenna. If an active GPS antenna is used, an
appropriate bias-T must be used to power the antenna, and the DC block
must be placed to prevent any DC power reaching the GPS port of the AP.
CAUTION! While using a third-party GPS antenna, ensure that the
minimum signal level at the AP input port is -145 dBm.
When using the RUCKUS Q950 antenna (Part number: 902-Q950-ANT1),
connect the antenna's GPS port to the AP Q950's GPS port according to
the instruction in the Q950-ANT1 QSG.
When using a third-party antenna or a RUCKUS GPS antenna (Part number:
902-Q950-GPS1), complete the following instructions.
1. Using the M4 x 8-mm screws that came with the GPS kit, mount the
GPS antenna bracket to the rear side of the AP, as shown in the
following figure.

2. Tighten to screws to 2.259 N.m. (20 in-lbs).
3. Connect the GPS antenna cable to the GPS port on the Q950 AP.
4. Use the cold shrink kit to seal the antenna cable connector.
Refer to the RUCKUS GPS Antenna QSG on port usage.
5. Secure the GPS antenna cable to the side of the AP mounting bracket
with tie wraps.
Mount AP to the Pole using Pole Mounting
1. Insert the open end of one pipe clamp into the upper two slots on the
mounting bracket.
2. Take the other pipe clamp and insert it into the lower two slots on the
mounting bracket.
NOTE: The pipe clamps can be daisy-chained together to
accommodate larger poles.
3. Use the clamps to attach the mounting bracket to the pole. Tighten
the clamps to 3 N.m (27 in-lbs.) or per manufacturer's specifications.
