13.8 Installation
This section covers the generic installation instructions for the bridge point-to-point wireless
Ethernet bridges. The actual installation procedure will depend on antenna choice, cable
choice, required antenna separation etc.
13.8.1 Antenna Choice
There are a wide variety of antennas that can be used with the Connectorized version of the
PTP 400 Series bridges. The main selection criteria will be the required antenna gain. The
secondary criteria should be the ease of mounting and alignment.
