You can mount antennas at the top of a pole as shown in
Figure 8
and
Figure 9
, or to a flat surface. If you must
mount the antenna lower on a pole, the pole must be nonmetallic—such as one made from a hard plastic like PVC
(polyvinyl chloride)—so that it does not distort the signal. Aerohive recommends that antennas be installed away
from power lines and obstructions that can interfere with radio coverage.
For each antenna that you mount, you need an attachment clamp, a 1 3/8" bolt and nut, a V-bolt, two washers and
two nuts, a hose clamp, and two wrenches.
Figure 8
Securing an antenna to an attachment clamp
1. Insert the 1 3/8" bolt through the attachment clamp and screw a nut loosely onto its end.
2. Place the antenna base cap inside the attachment clamp.
3. Using a pair of wrenches, tighten the nut to the bolt until the clamp grips the base cap firmly.

Mounting an antenna to a pole
4. To mount the antenna on a nonmetallic pole, place the attachment clamp against the pole, thread the V-bolt
through the holes on the attachment, the washers, and nuts, and use the wrenches to tighten the nuts to the
bolt. (Optional) For added stability, fasten the top of the antenna to the pole with the hose clamp.
To mount the antenna directly to a flat surface, run bolts or screws (not included) through the two holes in the
attachment clamp, and fasten them firmly to the surface.

Nut
Use one wrench to hold the nut
in place and the other to tighten
the bolt.
Insert the antenna into the clamp
until it grips the base cap.
Insert the bolt through the attachment
clamp and hold it in place with the nut.
Do not tighten it yet.

Attachment Clamp
With the attachment clamp against one side of the pole,
insert the V-bolt through the two holes in the clamp from
the other side. Then thread washers and nuts over the two
ends of the bolt and tighten them in place with a wrench.

Note: Aerohive recommends attaching the antenna near
the top of the pole. If you need to improve the stability of
the mounted antenna, fasten it to the pole with a hose
clamp (included) as shown on the far right.
