Installation Instructions
5.1Ghz~5.8GHz 24dBi Parabolic Grid Antenna
Thank you for buying a Premiertek antenna. It is a 5GHz 24dBi parabolic grid antenna
manufactured from durable corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy and stainless steel mounting
hardware.
Note: The short axis of the feed should be parallel with the reflector bars for both vertical and
horizontal polarization – as shown in the pictures on page 2
Assembly for Horizontal Polarization
Step One: Assemble both halves antenna, then attach the Feed & Mounting Bracket to the
center hole of reflector.
 This is achieved by sandwiching the reflector between the feed and mounting bracket.
 The mounting bracket is reversible. It allows for the antenna to be tilted either up or down.
Select the orientation best-suited to the installation site.
1. Pass the coaxial fly lead of the feed through the hole in the reflector from the front and then
through the hole in the mounting bracket. The long axis the feed should be parallel with the bars
on the reflector.
2. Bolt the feed feet, reflector and mounting bracket together using the two nuts, flat & split
washers and bolts.
3. Insert remaining two bolts, washers and nuts through reflector and mounting plate for
additional rigidity.
Step Two: Attach the Mounting Bracket
 Mount the assembled antenna to a suitable mast using the V-block and U-bolt supplied.
 Ensure the V-block sits flat against the mounting bracket so that the mounting bracket
does not make contact with the mast.
 Use the appropriate holes in the mounting bracket to aim the antenna.
Vertical Polarization
 For Vertical polarization, the feed and reflector should be rotated 90 degrees relative to
the mounting bracket.
 This will mean the short-axis of the reflector is now vertical and the short-axis of the feed
housing will be horizontal.
