Cisco Aironet Series 1700/2700/3700 Access Point Deployment Guide

Cisco Aironet Series 3700 Access Point

Tip

When mounting antennas outside, always mount with the WIRES DOWN and never obstruct or put
weather proofing material over the drain holes.

Figure 94

Always Mount Antennas Outdoors with Leads DOWN (Indoors Does not Matter)

Figure 95

If Antenna Connectors are Exposed to Weather – Coax-Seal Should be Used but if Present, Do Not Cover
Antenna Drain Holes.
