Connect External Antennas
When deploying a BAT54M Master bridge unit for a bridge link or access point
operation, you need to mount external antennas and connect them to the bridge.
Typically, a bridge link requires a 5 GHz antenna, and access point operation a
2.4 GHz antenna. BAT54 Slave units also require an external antenna for 2.4 GHz
operation.
Perform these steps:
1.
Mount the external antenna to the same supporting structure as the bridge,
within 3 m (10 ft) distance, using the bracket supplied in the antenna package.
2.
Connect the antenna to the bridge's N-type connector using the RF coaxial
cable provided in the antenna package.
3.
Apply weatherproofing tape to the antenna connectors to help prevent water
entering the connectors.
