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.
5. Make sure that all the antenna and cable connectors are clean. If you are using PTFE tape, wrap the tape around
the threads on the HiveAP 28 antenna connectors as explained in
"Connecting Antennas Directly to the HiveAP
6. Assuming that you are using male-to-female cables, connect the female Type N connector on the cables to the
male connectors on the antennas.
7. Connect the male Type N connectors on the cables to the female antenna connectors on the HiveAP 28.
