Chapter 3 Mounting Overview
Mounting the Access Point/Bridge
Mounting the Access Point/Bridge
Typically, the access point/bridge is installed on a rooftop, mast, tower, wall, or a suitable flat surface.
Each of these installations requires a different approach. This document provides a mounting overview.
For detailed mounting instructions, refer to the mounting instructions that shipped with your unit.
The access point/bridge is available in two configurations:
• Integrated antenna access point/bridge (with 13-dBi)
• External antenna access point/bridge (with two antenna connectors for use with a single antenna or
dual diversity antennas)
Note Personnel installing the access point/bridge must understand wireless techniques, antenna mounting and
adjustment, and grounding methods.
Note To meet regulatory restrictions, the external antenna access point/bridge unit and the external antenna
must be professionally installed. The network administration or other IT professional responsible for
installing and configuring the unit is a suitable professional installer. Following installation, access to the
unit should be password-protected by the network administrator to maintain regulatory compliance.
The following warning applies to outdoor and vehicle installations:
Warning
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.
