In the US, channels in the 5150–5250 MHz band are disabled when the HP 501 is configured for use with the J9170A
antenna.
CAUTION: When installing outdoor antennas outside, ensure that the metal shield is reliably
connected to the protective earthing system of the building.
NOTE: When using any of the optional high-gain antennas, you must also use a cable that
connects the HP 501 RP-SMA connector to the Type N connector on the optional antenna.
