Mounting the Antenna
Mounting Antenna Model WS-AIO-5S17017
The WS-AIO-5S17017 is a 5.5 GHz panel antenna that can be mounted indoors or outdoors.

The WS-AIO-5S17017 antenna can be mounted indoors or outdoors. For link installations, a line-
of-sight path between antennas works best. Although 5.5 GHz signals penetrate cubical dividers
and interior partitions with little attenuation, reinforced block walls, banks of metal cabinets, or
steel shelving may attenuate signals or cause multipass, a condition where reflected signals
interfere with the primary signal. Because antenna beam width is restricted to 15-degrees to each
side of center, the antenna must be aimed accurately during installation to provide optimum gain
and best performance.
The WS-AIO-5S17017 antenna comes with a universal articulating mount that accepts mast sizes
up to 2 inches (5.1 cm). This mount, which mounts flat against any vertical surface, is especially
designed to provide wide-range articulation in both the azimuth and elevation planes. You can
mount the WS-AIO-5S17017 antenna on a wall or on a pole.
