Cisco Cellular and GPS 3-in-1 Vehicle Mount and Fixed Infrastructure Antenna (ANT-3-4G2G1-O)

If the assembly starts to drop, move away from it and let it fall. Because the antenna, mast, cable, and metal guy wires are
all excellent conductors of electrical current, even the slightest touch of any of these parts to a power line completes an
electrical path through the antenna and the installer.

If any part of the antenna system should come in contact with a power line, do not touch it or try to remove it yourself. Call
your local power company to have it removed safely.

If an accident should occur with the power lines, call for qualified emergency help immediately.
Tools and Equipment Required
In addition to the parts included in the antenna kit described in the section Contents of the Antenna Kit , you must provide the
following tool to install the antenna on the router:

Open-ended wrench

Electric drill
NOTE : This list does not include the tools and equipment required to assemble and erect the tower, mast, or other structure you
intend to mount your antenna on.
Mounting the Antenna
NOTE : A clean, flat surface at least 20 x 20 cm (8 x 8 in.) in area is required for mounting the antenna.
Follow these instructions to mount the antenna:
1. Mark the desired location where you plan to mount the antenna and create a hole through the surface The diameter of the
hole must be at least 0.75 in. (1.91 cm).
2. Thread the cables through the hole and insert the aluminum stud on the underside of the antenna into the hole. Ensure that
the foam gasket on the underside of the antenna sits flush against the mounting surface.
3. Inside the vehicle, place the rubber sealing washer around the stud. Then place the metal washer and the metal nut onto
the stud. Tighten the nut.
Connecting the Antenna to the Router
To attach the router-end of the cable to your router, please see the Hardware Installation Guide for your particular device.
NOTE : Coaxial cable loses efficiency as the frequency increases, resulting in signal loss. The cable should be kept as short as
possible because cable length also determines the amount of signal loss—the longer the cable length or run, the greater the
loss).
