Concentrator Installation
Antenna Mounting Options
The concentrator requires three antennas to communicate with the endpoints and to relay
information from the endpoint to the host application:
• Two LAN antennas
• One WAN antenna
The LAN antennas mount on the side of the antenna bracket. The WAN communications antenna
mounts on top of the enclosure or on the antenna bracket, or you can mount all three antennas
remotely from the concentrator, such as at the top of a utility pole or a building parapet. If all three
antennas are mounted above the enclosure, coaxial cable connects the enclosure and the remote
antennas.
For All Installations
Concentrator Installation Sheet
The utility provides a concentrator Installation Sheet for every concentrator to be installed. The sheet
contains:
• Street address
• Type of mounting (wood pole, streetlight pole, building, etc.)
• Access method (bucket truck or installer climb).
Power Requirements
Power requirements are listed in Product Specifications. Verify that the power source is either 120
VAC or 240 VAC single phase.
Use only Landis+Gyr-approved antennas.
