The installation kit includes 2 plastic anchors and 2 #8 screws.

anchors using a 5 mm drill bit and insert anchors. Use a 9/64" drill bit for
screwing directly into a solid surface (stud).
2 Fasten the antenna to the wall. Refer to Figure 2-19 for directions. Use the
two #8 screws provided with the kit. Do not over tighten.

antenna. Use only the torque key supplied with the antenna. Do not over
tighten. Do not use a wrench or a similar tightening tool.
NOTE
Ensure that the antenna is mounted vertical to the floor, with the connector facing downward, and
the front of the antenna facing to the exterior of the building, preferably directed towards the Base
Station.
