3. Introduction
This manual gives field-level installation instructions for installing
Fluidmesh antennas. It is intended for use by wireless networking
professionals who have been tasked with installing Fluidmesh radio
antennas.
To prevent personal injury and equipment damage, and to ensure
optimum network performance:
• Install all network hardware where it cannot be physically damaged.
• Shield all network hardware from salt water and chemical spray.
• Keep a safe distance from all RF-radiating devices when such
devices are powered on, make sure that all persons and animals
are protected from possible RF exposure before activating any
device capable of transmitting RF signals, and do not stand in line
with powered RF-radiating devices.
• Make sure that all RF feeds are securely connected to an
appropriate antenna before activating any device capable of
transmitting RF signals.
3.1. The TUBE antenna
The TUBE antenna is a unidirectional antenna with high gain, and clear
directivity. It is primarily designed for use in tunnels and closed
environments, such as the tracksides of underground commuter-train
networks, as well as other underground mobility applications such as
mines.
The TUBE antenna includes an integral mounting bracket, and is suited
for direct mounting to walls.
