Planning the installation
B.
To minimize the effects of surrounding objects, the antenna should be located as far away from other structures as possible. If
fi tted with GPS/GNSS the antenna should have a clear view of the sky.
The antenna is directional with a horizontal beam width of around 90 degrees depending on frequency band, so the selected
Select a mounting location to ensure that the antenna is facing the direction of the strongest signal, which may not be pointing
directly towards the network base station. The orientation of the antenna should be vertical with the cable exiting downwards.
A low profi le wall mount bracket is supplied allowing fl at fi tment to a wall with no adjustment. Alternatively, if the antenna is fi tted to
a panel with rear access, then it can be secured to the panel using suitable length M6x1 machine screws into the threaded bushes
in the antenna back plate.A multi-tilt bracket is also supplied for mounting to a mast (diameter <60mm [2.36”] ) or wall – this allows
adjustable vertical and horizontal tilt.
Safety Notes
C.
•
The antenna is designed to be mounted by a professional installer. Please seek professional advice from an accredited

•
If the antenna will be fi tted to an existing mast, please ensure that it will not overload it.
•
Ensure that the installation location can be safely accessed with the equipment that you have available.
•
If mounting to a wall in a possition which is accessible care should be taken to ensure that no one comes within 1m (3’) of
the antenna during use.
CAUTION
Parts of the antenna are an electrical conductor. Contact with power lines can result in death, or serious
injury. Do not install the antenna where there is any possibility of contact with (or high voltage arc-over from)
power cables. The antenna and supporting mast must not be close to any power lines during installation,
removal or in the event that part of the system should accidentally fall.
CAUTION
If the antenna is installed above the roof line or in an exposed location, it is advisable to fi t lightning surge
arrestors in the coaxial cable feed line.
Suitable units should be sourced and installed as per the manufacturer instructions.
The installer is responsible for determining if this is a requirement for the antenna installation.
