NOTE
Be sure that after planning and designing the antenna system, the Penetration
Check test (described in the ApexPro Antenna System Installation Test
Instructions) is completed. It is used to estimate the RF penetration of the
hospital construction.
The standard installation for antennas uses a T-bar mount connected to the drop
ceiling support. The retaining clip and pin come with the antenna.
For ceiling tile or dry wall mounting, see
to order additional hardware kits necessary for these mounting options. All antenna
mounting installation options and instructions are described in the ApexPro
Telemetry Antenna Mounting Instructions that are included with the antenna.
Standard installation
NOTE
For customer site reasons, some antennas may require installation above the
ceiling. Antennas cannot be mounted in a plenum air shaft, since the antenna is
not plenum rated. For specific guidance on above-ceiling antenna mounting,
contact the Network Design and Integration (ND&I) team.
Antenna amplifiers are installed to boost the signal levels from the antenna. The
installation location for the antenna amplifier is generated by the ND&I team for each
site installation.
