The flat washer should be against the base of the mounting assembly.
• Screw one of the hexagonal nuts into place on top of the two washers.
Once tightened, the nut should force the lock washer into place and the
two bracket components should be locked together.
• Connect the Ethernet cable to the controller and verify that all antennas
are securely connected.
6.12.3 Connecting Antennas and Ground Wire to OAP433e
OAP433e does not ship with any antenna by default. Since customers have
different outdoor applications, we suggest that you choose from the various
antenna options offered by Meru. See the list in Optional External Antennas.
The OAP433e works both with antennas that attach directly to the unit and remote
antennas. When using antennas that attach to the unit, attach the antennas before
installing the unit. When deploying an OAP433e with remote antennas, first mount
remote antennas and then connect them to the AP. If you aren’t planning on using
some of the antennas, be sure to terminate the connections with antenna
terminators in order to prevent excess transmissions from unused connectors.
Note
Although there are three radios in the OAP433e, space constraints allow for only
eight antennas to be connected to the AP. Consequently, Radio 1 only supports
two antennas. See Figure 34, Antenna-Radio Mapping for OAP433e & Figure 35,
Antenna-Radio Mapping & Radio Settingfor details on which antennas correspond
to each radio
