As its name suggests, the All Weather Omni provides omni-directional
coverage and is suitable for outdoor environments. It should be attached
directly to the Location Sensor housing, and therefore requires no additional
mounting. For this reason, it is the preferred antenna for the Location Sensor.
Because it is an omni-directional antenna, the coverage pattern of the All
Weather Omni can be degraded if mounted too close to metallic structures.
Therefore, the All Weather Omni must be mounted a minimum 12 inches (305
mm) from nearby metallic structures.
