6.3 Install GPS Antenna
6.4 Install GPS antenna for AirSynergy
Note: AirSynergy units without a factory fitted Switching antenna all require a
GPS antenna which comes in a kit with a mounting bracket and a 25cm cable. A
prime consideration for a GPS antenna is a clear view of the sky, preferably 360
degrees
Install the GPS antenna bracket to the AirSynergy unit using the M6 threaded hole near the top of the
main using the fixing. The GPS Antenna is secured to the GPS mounting bracket with large nuts
supplied. The short RJ58 RF cable (TNC to TNC connections 25cm long) is fitted to the bottom of the
GPS antenna and across to the TNC connection point on the top connection plate of the main unit
6.4.1 Mount the GPS Antenna
The GPS antenna bracket can be optionally mounted on a Pole up to 40mm (1.5"). The Antenna
screws on to the 25m threaded tube.
To mount the GPS antenna, perform the following steps:
1. The RJ58 antenna cable is provided with a TNC connector attached at each end. Run the
cable from the AirSynergy GPS receiver connection point to the location of the GPS antenna.
2. Thread the TNC connector cable through the threaded tube on the bracket and attach the
TNC connector to the Antenna.
3. Connect the tube to the antenna by holding the antenna firm and rotating the bracket around
the cable until the thread is fully engaged in the threaded part of the antenna.
4. Connect the bracket to the pole using the two U bolts and tightening with a 10mm spanner.
6.5 Connect PoE cable to the AirSynergy
Pull back the hinged protective dust cover and insert the PoE connector so that the RJ45 connector
engages and the Amphenol hood locks into place with the hinged dust cover.
1. Cable and connect:
o PoE (Power over Ethernet)
o Protection Ground (An optional grounding cable should be used to connect the
AirSynergy metal casting to a suitable grounding point on the tower.)
