Note that diversity antennas have two pigtail cables. A diversity antenna
includes two internal antenna elements that are identical. Both antenna pigtail
cables must be connected to the access point for correct operation.
Other non-diversity antennas, which have only one pigtail cable, attach to the
access point’s “Primary” antenna connector for the appropriate radio.
To connect pigtail cables to the access point, follow these steps:
1.
Disable the access point radio using the Web browser interface, CLI, or
SNMP.
2.
Remove power to the access point.
3.
Remove the connector cover on the back of the access point.
4.
For diversity antennas, connect the antenna pigtail cables to the exposed
Reverse SMA connectors for the appropriate radio.
For non-diversity antennas, be sure to connect the single pigtail cable to
the Reverse SMA connector labeled “Primary.”
C a u t i o n
Do not over-torque the antenna cables on SMA connector. (8 in-lb max).
5.
Reconnect power to the access point.
N o t e
Before enabling the radio with an external antenna attached, be sure to first
configure the access point’s antenna mode and type.
