Install the Access Point
For best results, mount the antenna in the center of the coverage area. A line-of-sight
path between the antenna and the active area works best. Avoid mounting next to a
column or vertical support that creates a shadow zone and reduces coverage.
Note
Install the antenna before you connect the cable so the cable is not twisted or
damaged.
Procedure
1. Attach the antenna mount to the exposed studs on the back of the antenna with
four 1/4 in -20 hex nuts, four 1/4 in-20 flat washers, and four 1/4 in -20 lock washers.
2. Secure one side of the articulating arm to the antenna mount using one bolt size
5/16 in x 1-5/8 in (5), 1 5-16 in split lock wash, and two flat washer 5-16 in and one hex
nut 5-16.
3. Mount the antenna on a wall:
a. Mark holes locations.

a. Attach the two hose clamps to the antenna mount bracket.
You can encircle the pole with each clamp. Tighten the clamps securely.
