Mounting Instructions for Ceiling Mount Antennas

Mounting Instructions for Mic Stand Mount Antennas

Attach the antenna cable to the antenna and tighten.

Replace the ceiling tile

NOTES:
Plenum Areas:  Plenum-rated cables must be used in plenum areas above the drop ceiling.  ClearOne antenna 
kits state whether they include plenum or non-plenum rated cables.  Extension antenna units are not plenum rated 
and should never be placed in plenum areas.  Refer to the authority having jurisdiction for the project site for 
details regarding the fire regulations in that area.

Paint:  The plastic case can be painted with nonmetallic paint to match the decor.

Outdoor Mounting: ClearOne extension antennas are designed for outdoor use, but they operate normally 
mounted inside a waterproof  plastic  box.

Polar Pattern: ClearOne extension antennas have a 160 degree polar pattern.  Ceiling mounted antennas typically 
cover the entire room.

Unscrew the two wing-nuts on the underside of the antenna 
assembly.

Center the antenna on the room-facing side of the ceiling tile 
and press the screws through the ceiling tile until the antenna 
is flush with the surface of the tile.
Connect the antenna cable to the TNC connector.

Turn the ceiling tile over and install the washers and wing-nuts. 
Tighten gently until the antenna is securely fastened to the tile.
Connect the antenna cable to the TNC connector.

Position  antennas according to the rules in the case studies 
above.  Do not daisy-chain extension antennas together in series.
