Keep safety in mind when you select your installation site. Keep away from electric power lines
and other lines.

Do not work alone when you install the antenna.
•
If the antenna, antenna cable, or any other installation accessory drops, get away from it to
avoid bodily injury.
•
To avoid any potential hazards, always have a professional handle power connection rather
than attempting it yourself.
•
If an accident, for example, electrical shock, occurs, immediately call for qualified emergency
help.
Installation guidelines
To ensure optimal performance of the antenna, follow these guidelines:
•
Keep the antenna away from metal obstacles, such as heating pipes and air conditioners.
•
The material and thickness of walls determine the number of walls that the RF signal can
penetrate. 5 GHz signal attenuation is large. Avoid signal penetration through solid walls.
Mounting the antenna
1.
Put the antenna over the AP front.
2.
Use M2.6 × 6 mm screws to secure the antenna.
3.
Connect the RP-SMA male connectors on the antenna to the RP-SMA female connectors on
the AP.
