Installing the Antennas
After you mount the CMAP on the cable strand, the next step is to install the three 5GHz
antennas that are supplied with the CMAP.
CAUTION:
To avoid damaging the antennas, Ruckus Wireless strongly recommends that
you install the antennas only after you mount the CMAP on the cable strand and have
attached the strand coaxial cable to Connector B. See the preceding section.
To install the external antennas
1.
Take out the three antennas that were shipped with the CMAP.
2.
Locate the three N type female bulkhead connectors on the underside of the strand
interface.
3.
Take one antenna and then mate its end (N type male connector) with the N type female
bulkhead connector on the strand interface.
4.
Using your fingers, turn the connector nut only on the antenna to tighten the
connection.
5.
Repeat the previous two steps for the two remaining antennas.
6.
Verify that all three antennas are securely attached to the strand interface.
7.
Verify that all antenna connectors from the strand interface are securely fastened to
the CMAP.
You have completed attaching the external antennas to the strand interface.
NOTE:
After verifying correct connections and correct operation, you may choose to wrap
the connectors with self-fusing tape if you deem that they require protection from local
weather.
