Installation Procedures 

3.1

 

Step 1: Mounting Kits 

Assemble  the  mounting  bracket  (lightweight,  heavy-duty,  or  stand-alone)  using  the 
instructions  in  this  section.  Confirm  that  the  mounting  bracket  adjusts  correctly  to  the 
diameter of the mast. 

 

Important: Antenna Polarization 

The same antenna polarization must be used for both AN-80i units in a PTP link and 
all  units  in  a  PMP  deployment.  The  arrows  on  the  rear  of  the  antenna  indicate  the 
polarization. 

 

3.1.1

 

Lightweight Mounting Kit 

The lightweight mounting kit general-purpose adapter allows the AN-80i to be mounted 
on a mast pipe or flat surface. This bracket can be used with Redline flat panel antennas 
that  mount  directly  to  the  radio  or  with  antennas  that  are  mounted  separately  (e.g., 
parabolic antenna). 

 

Figure 7: Lightweight Antenna Mounting Bracket 

The lightweight installation kit includes: 

1.  Universal mounting bracket with assembly hardware.  Bracket adjusts for a 44.5  to 76.2 mm 

(1.75 to 3.00 in) mast pipe or mounts directly to a flat surface. Assembly is required. 

2.  One 228 mm (9 in) RF jumper cable (N-type connectors, 50 Ohm).
