Antenna Installation
WatchGuard dual-band omnidirectional dipole antennas (WG9004) are sold separately in packs of two
antennas.
On the top of the AP327X, there are two N-type connectors each for the 2.4 GHz radio and the 5 GHz radio.
Insert the antennas into the connectors and turn clockwise to tighten.
You can use a combination of WatchGuard omnidirectional and other third-party omnidirectional and
directional antennas based on your deployment requirements.
If you use other third-party antenna types, you are responsible for verifying compliance
with regional-based regulations on Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP). The
maximum power antenna gain = EIRP. For example, the maximum EIRP
defined by the FCC in the U.S. for 2.4 GHz is 30 dBm (1 Watt), and 5 GHz is 5.15-5.25
23 dBm (200mW), 5.25-5.35 30dBm (1W), and 5.72-5.85 36 dBm (4W).
