Antenna Configuration for External Antenna Model Access Point The 2.4G and 5G–8 and the 2.4G and 5G–7 are sensor antenna ports. Note The internal BLE is always used unless you attach an antenna to the BLE antenna connector. Note The BLE antenna port and the sensor antenna ports come with dust caps installed on them. Do not remove the dust caps until you need to install the antennas.
Form a Drip Loop Connection for Cables After the cables and antennas are connected to the access point, gather each cable below the access point, and form a drip loop connection. You do not need a drip loop if the LAN wire is already below the access point. Note The drip loop prevents water from entering the access point by channeling water down and away from the connection points. Drip loops are required to ensure proper operation of the access point.
