AP 20
The wifi0 interface links to radio 1 (frequency range = 2.4 GHz for IEEE 802.11b/g), and the wifi1 interface links to
radio 2 (frequency range = 5 GHz for IEEE 802.11a). These interface-to-radio relationships are permanent. However,
the interface-to-antenna relationships can be shifted. In other words, you can change which antenna—fixed or
external—the wifi0 and wifi1 interfaces use. For example, to link the wifi0 interface to an external antenna
connected to the 802.11b/g RP-SMA connector (for radio 1), enter the following command:
interface wifi0 radio antenna external
If you do not enter this command, the wifi0 interface and all its subinterfaces (wifi0.1, wifi0.2, wifi0.3 … wifi0.7)
continue to use both fixed antennas.
To unlink the wifi0 interface from the external antenna and return it to the fixed antennas, enter this command:
interface wifi0 radio antenna internal

AP 20
Using the mounting plate and track clip, you can mount the HiveAP 20 to the tracks of a dropped ceiling grid. Using
just the mounting plate, you can mount the HiveAP to any surface that can support its weight (1.5 lb., 0.68 kg).
Ceiling Mount
To mount the HiveAP 20 to a track in a dropped ceiling, you need the mounting plate, track clip, and two cross-head
screws that ship with the track clip. You also need a cross-head screw driver and—most likely—a ladder.
Attach the track clip to the mounting plate, and then attach the clip-plate combination to the HiveAP 20, as shown
in
Figure 6
.

Attaching the HiveAP 20 to the mounting plate and track clip
Note:
After entering the above command, the radio to which you attached the external antenna uses the
external antenna and the fixed antenna on the opposite side of the HiveAP. Attaching an external antenna
only disconnects the adjacent fixed antenna. Note the two antenna switches shown in
Figure 5 on page 32
.
Align the two projecting posts on the underside of
the track clip with holes in the mounting plate.
Using the two cross head screws that ship with the
track clip, fasten the mounting plate to the track clip.
Insert the pins on the underside of the HiveAP
into the two slots in the mounting plate.
Use the mounting screw to secure the HiveAP
to the plate.
