2.13 Remote Panel Antenna Installation
When choosing a deployment location to optimize performance, it may be necessary to
mount a device such that one of the antenna panels may be obstructed. For example, traffic
light poles can completely obscure one of the panels in the AP 7181 antenna array. The
Remote Panel antenna kit can be used to address this use case.
In addition to the standard hardware, the following items are also required for installing a
Remote Panel antenna:
• Antenna Extension Cables (6 or 10 feet)
• Canopy Subscriber Module (SM) Mounting Bracket
• Terminators for the Horizontal (HP) and Vertical (VP) antenna connections on the
top of the unit
NOTE In addtion to the required tools , you will need a cordless drill and
a 3.6 mm bit to predrill the hole for the set screw on the Canopy
SM Mounting Bracket.
