Using the mounting accessories (available separately) you can mount the HiveAP in various locations:

"Pole Mount" on page 39

 – Mount the HiveAP 28 on a pole such as the arm of a street light.

"Strand Mount" on page 40

 – Suspend the HiveAP 28 from a cable or phone line.

"Surface Mount" on page 41

 – Mount the HiveAP 28 on a flat surface such as a wall or beam.

You can mount the HiveAP 28 in any of these locations as long as the object to which you mount it and the attaching 
screws can support its weight (9 lbs., 4.08 kg).

After mounting the HiveAP 28, attach the antennas as explained in 

"Attaching Antennas" on page 42

.

Before you mount the HiveAP 28 and attach antennas, read the following warnings and cautions:

To install the HiveAP 28, you must be a qualified installation professional, licensed or certified in 
accordance with local regulations.

Use lightning arrestors and ground both the HiveAP 28 and any separately mounted antennas.

Do not connect or disconnect antennas or cables from the HiveAP 28 during periods of lightning activity.

If you need to place the HiveAP 28 in an explosive environment, such as in an oil refinery, mine, or any 
place where there is flammable gas, it must first be encased in an ATEX enclosure.

To comply with RF (radio frequency) exposure limits, do not place antennas within 6.56 feet (2 meters) of 
people.

Do not locate antennas near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where they 
can come into contact with such circuits. When installing antennas, take extreme care not to come into 
contact with such circuits, which might cause serious injury or death. For proper installation and grounding 
of the antenna, refer to national and local electrical codes: NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) 70, 
National Electrical Code Article 810 (U.S.); Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA 22.1 and Section 54 
(Canada); and if local or national electrical codes are not available, refer to IEC (International 
Electrotechnical Commission) 364, Part 1 through 7 (other countries).

To prevent damage, avoid over-tightening the connectors, nuts, and screws used to mount the antenna and 
the antenna itself.
