Consult your system integrator or our technical support engineer to choose the suitable external
antenna with N-type connector for your application. Different antenna supports different bands and
different range of coverage. There are indication labels shows which radio the antenna socket belongs
to. JetWave 2800 supports maximum 3 Radio cards, please connect your antenna correctly and
configure the band and settings for each of them

When prepare the external antenna, make sure the antenna can support Dual
Polarization. Most of the high gain antenna supports Dual Polarization. Connect the V
polarization of antenna to V polarization of the AP. The H polarization of antenna to H
polarization of the AP.
Some of the low gain or Omni antenna may not support Dual Polarization, you can
connect 2 the same dbi gain antennas to V and H polarization.
