Wall mounting

Pole mounting

Place the two U-bolts 

 around the pole and use the supplied nuts and

washers 

 

 to fix the mounting plate 

. The package includes two

mounting clamps for poles of different diameters.

Pole mounting

Mounting is completed by attaching your LANCOM OAP Wireless with the
help of two screws 

 to the mounting plate.
