Installation Instruction – SW3-771
L[G]M[X] Series
Introduction
A.
The L[G]M[X]-24-58 range has been designed to provide MiMo
dual band WiFi coverage in an ultra low profile package. The
compact, robust low-profile housing contains up to four antenna
elements with effective isolation and low correlation covering
2.4-2.5/4.9-6GHz.
The antenna is designed to be panel mounted on vehicles or
devices and can be fitted on a conductive or non- conductive
panel. Supplied with integral flame retardant CS32 cables
(Compliant to UNECE 118.01 and EN45545-2) and a halogen
free flame retardant radome, the antenna is suitable for many
environments and applications.
The LGM variants have an integrated GPS/GNSS module with
26dB LNA gain.

Electrical Safety Note
Versions of this product contains an active GPS antenna (part number SR8-HG26). Rated volt-
age: 3-5VDC Rated current: 20mA maximum
The supply to this device must be provided with overcurrent protection of 1A
maximum.
Mounting requirements and selecting location
B.
This antenna range can be deployed with or without a conductive ground plane.
Ensure that there is adequate under panel clearance and that there is no double skin panel or cross brace
present. Measure to check for central position if applicable. For optimal performance the antenna should, if
possible, be mounted at least 300mm (1ft) away from other conductive objects on the mounting panel.
Prepare and drill hole
C.
Mask panel area around hole position to protect paintwork and headliner.
Drill a pilot hole, and then increase to 19mm (3/4”), ensuring that drill/cutter
bit does not contact headliner. Clean area around the hole, carefully removing
all swarf. Do not mount to a hole larger than 19mm diameter.
If mounting to a conductive ground plane remove paint and primer from under
panel surface to ensure adequate earth contact by washer and nut. Apply
some petroleum jelly or paint around the hole to prevent corrosion.
