Preparing The Antenna For Installation - Cisco 4G-ANTM-OM-CM Manual

Cisco WPAN Yagi Antenna (ANT-WPAN-Y-OUT-N)

Preparing the Antenna for Installation

NOTE: Before mounting the antenna on a mast or pole, the antenna must be attached to the mounting bracket.
To prepare the antenna for installation:

Attach the bracket to the antenna support beam. Tighten the four nuts tight enough to stabilize the antenna. Torque to 45
in.-lbs. (5.1 N-m). The bracket should be toward the back of the antenna support beam.
Mounting the Antenna
Follow these instructions to mount the antenna.
1. Attach the antenna assembly to the pole using the two U-bolts provided. The antenna elements should be vertical for
vertical polarization.
2. Tighten the nuts evenly and enough to secure the antenna on the pole. Torque the nuts to 60 in.-lbs. (6.8 N-m).
3. Connect the RF cable to the pigtail and weatherproof the connection. Be sure to secure the cable to the pole using UV
resistant tie wraps.
Connecting the Lightning Arrestor
To attach the router-end of the cable to your router, see the
Configuration section of the
Guide.
Connecting the Antenna to the Router
To attach the router-end of the cable to your router, see the
Configuration section of the
Guide.
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 cable length or run, the greater the
loss).
