Hardware Description
Altitude 300-2 ™ Models And Connections
The Altitude 300-2
™
wireless port box comes in two models. The first, the
Altitude-2i
™
, is a unit with integrated, dual band antennas and the second, the
Altitude-2d
™
, is a unit with external antenna connectors. Both models have the
same radios and overall feature set. Altitude-2i
™
is for indoor deployment only.
Altitude-2d
™
, together with an Extreme Networks external antenna, may be
configured as indoor use where both the Altitude-2d
™
and the external antenna
are deployed indoor, or as outdoor use where the Altitude-2d
™
is installed
indoor and the external antenna is placed outdoor.
Figure 6 shows the rear side of the
integrated antenna model of the
Altitude 300-2i
™
. The Ethernet
cable is plugged into the RJ45 jack.
It supplies both network
connectivity and power to the
unit. The Altitude 300-2i
™
can be
locked by either a standard
computer cable lock inserted in to
the cable lock hole or a padlock in
the tab provided for it.

model there is an Ethernet RJ45
