Removing an Antenna Plug

numbered. If you are adding a second radio to the access point,
antenna ports 1 and 2 may be plugged. You will need to remove
these plugs to install the antenna cable assemblies. If you are
using only one antenna, remove antenna port 2.
To remove an antenna plug

Note: If the special tool is not used, the 802.11a connector
will be destroyed and the radio rendered useless.
