Step 2
Determine the mounting location for the antenna.
Note
The fasteners and mounting surface should be capable of maintaining a minimum pullout force of 150 pounds
(68 kg) to support the weight of the antenna plus the potential wind loading on the antenna.
Step 3
Use the mount flange as a template (see
) and mark the positions of the holes for mounting the
antenna-bracket assembly on the wall. Drill holes into this marked positions, insert wall anchors as
required, and attach the flange to the wall using four screws.
Step 4
(Optional) Cut a hole in the wall, for passing the antenna cables through.
Step 5
Attach the other mount flange to the back of the antenna.
Step 6
Hold up the antenna–mount flange assembly against the wall and pass the antenna cables through the
hole in the wall. Make sure you orient the antenna correctly (note the arrow on the back of the antenna
that indicates the top of the antenna).
Step 7
Mount the antenna–mount flange assembly on to the flange mount on the wall. For guidance, see the
short-link mount bracket assembly in
.
Step 8
(Optional) Seal the hole for the cables using a cable sealing system, such as the Roxtec Multidiameter™
cable sealing system. Visit
for information on how to install the cable sealing
system.
Step 9
Connect the antenna cables to the access point.
Mounting the Antenna on a Pole
You can mount the antenna on poles that have diameters ranging from 2 to 5 inches (50mm - 135mm).
Note
The pole or mast must be rigid enough to hold the weight of the antenna plus the associated forces
produced by wind loads. In addition, the pole or mast must be structurally strong enough to withstand
the clamping force of the hose clamps.
To mount the antenna on a pole using the short-link mount bracket assembly, follow these steps:
Step 1
Familiarize yourself with:
•
“Length of Short Link Mount – in inches (and millimeters)”
•
“Assembling the Short Link Mount”
Step 2
Determine the mounting location on the pole.
Note
The fasteners and mounting surface should be capable of maintaining a minimum pullout force of 150 pounds
(68 kg) to support the weight of the antenna plus the potential wind loading on the antenna.
Step 3
Position and mount a mounting flange (
) onto the pole using the hose clamps provided in the kit.
The hose clamps should pass through the slots on the mounting flange (
Step 4
Tighten the clamps only enough such that the flange and antenna can be held in place until the antenna
is positioned to its final position.
Step 5
Attach the other mount flange to the back of the antenna.
Step 6
Hold up the antenna–mount flange assembly against the pole-mounted flange. Make sure you orient the
antenna correctly (note the arrow on the back of the antenna that indicates the top of the antenna).
