10. Remove the yellow outdoor installation warning label from the antenna radome.

Outdoor Installations

You can mount this antenna outdoors. If you mount the antenna outdoors, you must provide the mounting hardware. For outdoor
installations, follow the instructions printed on the back of the antenna.
CAUTION: An orientation arrow is printed on the back of the antenna that indicates the proper orientation for the antenna for
outdoor installations. You must install the antenna so the arrow points up to prevent any water intrusion and to provide a drain
for any moisture that may accumulate inside the antenna.
Suggested Cable
Cisco recommends a high-quality, low-loss cable for use with the antenna.
NOTE: Coaxial cable loses efficiency as the frequency increases, resulting in signal loss. The cable should be kept as short as
possible, because cable length also determines the amount of signal loss (the longer the run, the greater the loss).
