Initial Antenna Mounting
The antenna must be an exact model recommended by the path and site planning
engineer(s). Mount the antenna at the proper height, mast/mounting location and
polarization orientation as determined by the path and site planning engineer(s). The
model type, location, and orientation of the antenna is critical with respect to achieving
proper path clearance, as well as to mitigate external or self-interference from nearby or
collocated systems operating in or near the same frequency band.
Warning: Mount the antenna in a restricted area and in a manner
preventing long-term human exposure to the transmitted RF energy. To
comply with FCC and Industry Canada regulations, the minimum safe
distance from the antenna for continuous human exposure for the EX-2.4i
models is 10 feet (3m), 39 inches (1m) for the EX-4.9i, and 10.5 feet
(3.2m) for the EX-5i models.
