Figure 4-3 Selecting an Access Point
You should mount your outdoor Customer Premise Equipment as high as possible on your
building, and align it to the compass reading you have just taken. For example, the previous
Figure 4-3 shows the path to Access Point A obstructed by a cluster of trees. However, there are
two possible mounting locations for the outdoor Customer Premise Equipment giving a clear line
of sight to Access Point B.
Attention! Your outdoor transceiver has a beam width of approximately 20 degrees. You
will need to be fairly accurate when aligning your transceiver to the compass bearing you
wrote down earlier (the more accurate your compass readings, the better).
2) If you do come up with two or more suitable locations for the outdoor Customer Premise
Equipment, choose the one that is easiest for you to reach, when it comes to installing!
4.2 Installing On an Antenna Mast
1) Position the mounting pole on the antenna mast.
2) Insert the U-bolts around the mast (Figure 4-4) and through the holes in the mounting pole.
Install a washer and nut to each side of the threaded U-bolt and hand tighten. Repeat this
step for the second U-bolt.
3) Tighten nuts equally until mounting pole is secure and cannot rotate.
