Security Slot
Both devices have a security slot for locking the device.
Extreme Networks recommends a variety of Kensington
®
locks. For more information, contact your sales representative.
External Antenna Connectors
The AP305CX has four male RP-SMA connectors for attaching dual-band dipole antennas. You can provide your own antennas, or
you can order them from Extreme Networks (AH-ACC-ANT-AX-KT).
The antenna kit contains four articulated 2.4/5 GHz antennas with a 3/5-dBi gain. These antennas are omnidirectional, providing
fairly equal coverage in all directions in a toroidal (doughnut-shaped) pattern. For greater coverage on a horizontal plane, it is best to
orient the antennas vertically. The articulated antennas hinge and swivel so that you can easily do this, whether the AP is mounted
horizontally or vertically.
