5  Install AirSynergy 

Install the AirSynergy eNodeB by pole mount, wall mount, or single point.  The AirSynergy unit 
can be connected to various types of antennas via standard RF coaxial cables.  Antennas should 
be positioned with 10 wavelengths horizontal separation to give optimal Downlink and Uplink 
MIMO performance. 

AirSynergy is normally mounted on a pole (in close proximity to its external antenna when not 
using the AirSynergy front mounted Antenna). Take care to install the mounting plate the correct 
way up. This is with the slot openings in the bracket at the top edges as shown. 

 

Caution:

 Proper local rigging and hoisting practices should be followed when 

installing the AirSynergy.  

5.1  Pole Mount Assembly 

The following images show the pole mount assembly. 

1.  Position mounting plate with slots facing up. 

 

Figure 10 - AirSynergy mounting plate and hardware 

2.  Feed clamp bands through the quick release locking mechanisms and wrap around pole. 

 

 

Figure 11 - Assemble clamp bands (2 required) 

 

3.  Wrap the band to properly fit on the pole. Press down locking mechanism with band 

excess fed through the mechanism.
