Instructions for the installation of Detachable Antenna with
the FWG114P
1. Introduction
This information provides guidelines to permit you to install the NETGEAR detachable antennas with
the FWG114P 11g wireless router and antenna cable and be compliant with the FCC regulations.
FWG114P provides 15dBm maximum transmit power plus antenna gain.
The maximum equivalent isotropic radiated power limit is 1W ERP. When installing the detachable
antennas listed below, the installer has to be sure the limits won’t be exceeded. If so, attenuation in the
form of antenna cable is added between the FWG114P wireless node and the antenna.
It is not allowed to let the end user do whatever they want. Anyone tries to use non-
Netgear dedicated accessory may have violated the regulation and voided the right to use.
If they use Netgear's antenna accessories, they are all well prepared. The cables and
connectors are matched.
Disclaimer: Use of any antenna requires careful planning and extra consideration to comply with
emissions and health standards and regulations. It is recommended that a qualified professional
installer service is consulted for site survey and proper installation. Antenna installation must comply
with the maximum level authorized by each country.

3. Installation Procedure for the Wireless Node, Antenna Cable, and Antenna
1. In the table below, identify the NETGEAR detachable antenna to be used with the
FWG114P, e.g. the ANT24D18.
2. Read the required NETGEAR Antenna cable to be used, e.g. ACC-10314-05 30m cable
(with ANT24D18). In some cases, no cable is required. Therefore in this situation, the
user is free to use a NETGEAR cable from 1.5m to 30m or no cable at all.
3. Connect the selected antenna cable to the FWG114P wireless Node and to the antenna
