Overview
Audience: This guide is intended for people who have a high level of technical ability, although they may
not have experience with Cisco software.
This guide is intended to help with antenna installation for various transportation scenarios. It uses graphics
with examples of assumed possible use cases, but cannot cover every possible scenario.
Scenarios described in this guide use both the Pluggable P-LTE-xx Module as well as the P-LTEAP18-GL
Category 18 Pluggable Module.
The P-LTE-xx offers 3 antenna ports:
• LTE-Main (SMA)
• LTE-Div (SMA)
• GPS (SMA)
The P-LTEAP18-GL offers 4 antenna ports:
• Main 0 Antenna (SMA)
• Main 1 Antenna (SMA)
• Diversity 0 Antenna (SMA)
• Diversity 1 Antenna (SMA)
Throughout this guide you will see references to the different types of plugs and jacks used as connectors.
The following figure shows the different types:
