Installation Notes Installation Notes Antennas transmit and receive radio signals which are susceptible to RF obstructions and common sources of interference that can reduce throughput and range of the device to which they are connected. Follow these guidelines to ensure the best possible performance: • Install the antenna vertically and mount it as high as possible.

Installing the Antenna Figure 2 Antenna Bracket Attached to Mounting Bracket Step 3 Determine the mounting location for the antenna. Step 4 Attach the wall bracket to the wall using the two screws provided (Figure 3). Figure 3 Step 5 Wall Mounting Slide the mounting bracket onto the wall bracket and secure it in place (optional) with the two screws provided (Figure 4).

Installing the Antenna Figure 4 Attaching Mounting Bracket to Wall Bracket Once the antenna is secured on the wall, you can adjust the azimuth and elevation. Step 6 To adjust the azimuth and elevation, loosen the bolt that attaches the antenna bracket to the mounting bracket (Figure 5). Azimuth can be adjusted ±90 degrees. Elevation can be adjusted +15 degrees and -35 degrees.

Installing the Antenna Mounting on a Mast The antenna can be mounted on a mast rather than on a wall using two 1/2 inch-wide hose clamps (not provided). To mount the antenna on a mast, follow these steps: Step 1 Follow Step 1 and Step 2 from “Mounting on a Vertical Surface”. Step 2 Position the antenna, mounting bracket, and hose clamps on the mast. Step 3 Tighten the hose clamps until the antenna is secure on the mast. Once the antenna is secured on the mast, you can adjust the azimuth and elevation.
