Installation Scenarios
Wall Mount
The AX500-S wall mount kit should be installed on street level, i.e. not more than 10 meters above the
target coverage area.
Suitable for open ground coverage, i.e. warehouses, container ports, …
Example: Warehouse

Pole Mount
The AX500-S pole mount kit is suitable for installation at high places, i.e. building rooftop and tower.
Recommend the building height should not be more than 50 meters. The higher the building, the more
downtilt angle you should need so that the front antenna radome is pointed at the target coverage
area. You can simply determine the downtilt angle by trigonometry formula: tan
-1
(Building Height /
Target Range). The max downtilt angle can be made to 30 degree by the provided pole mount downtlit
kit.
For the case of rooftop installation, we recommend the AX500-S unit be installed at the corners to
reduce any signal reflection and blocking by building structures. In addition, we should keep a
clearance of 0.5 meter at least above the wall or parapet. The clearance may vary depending on the
downtilt angle, thickness of the wall/parapet and whether there are some other objects or building
structures protruding out of building surface.
The pole size should be 1 – 3 inches of diameter
