• AIR-CAP2602I-x-K9 and AIR-SAP2602I-x-K9—two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios, with
integrated dual-band inverted-F antennas
For information on the regulatory domains (shown as “x” in the model numbers) see “Regulatory
Domains” section on page 7.
External Antennas
The 2601E and 2602E models are configured with up to four external dual-band dipole antennas, and
two 2.4-GHz single-band radios in 2601 models or two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz dual-band radios in 2602
models. The radios and antennas support frequency bands 2400–2500 MHz and 5150–5850 MHz
through a common dual-band RF interface. Features of the external dual-band dipole antennas are:
• Four RTNC antenna connectors on the top of the access point
• Four TX/RX antennas
These antennas are supported on the 2601E and the 2602E:
• AIR-ANT2524DB-R
• AIR-ANT2524DW-R
• AIR-ANT2524DG-R
• AIR-ANT2524V4C-R
• AIR-ANT2546V4M-R
• AIR-ANT2566P4W-R
Internal Antennas
The 2601I and 2602I model access points are configured with up to four dual-band inverted-F
antennas, and either two 2.4-GHz single-band radios in 2601 models or two 2.4-GHz/5-GHz
dual-band radios in 2602 models.
There are four antennas deployed inside the access point with one deployed on each corner of the
access point top housing. Each antenna covers either the 2.4-GHz band or both the 2.4 GHz and the
5 GHz bands with a single feed line. The basic features are as follows:
• Dual-band inverted-F antenna for use in both the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz bands.
• Antenna unit integrated into the 2601I and 2602I model access points.
• Peak gain is approximately 2 dBi in the 2.4-GHz band and approximately 4 dBi in the 5-GHz
band.
