Installation Preparation: The Path Survey & Cable
Installation
Before beginning installation, you should complete path and site surveys for the link, including line-of-sight path
planning, antenna supports, and pre-installation preparation. The path survey should also specify the expected
signal strength between the two antennas.
Proxim strongly recommends that a qualified radio engineer perform
the path survey.
The procedure to perform a path survey is beyond the scope of this manual. If you have questions
about or problems with the path survey, contact your reseller or Proxim Technical Support.
