Installing the Antenna
There are many methods for mounting the antenna onto
a wall. The assembly includes a
U
-bolt that allows you to
connect the directional antenna to a standard size
mounting assembly that is used for other directional
antenna applications. Directional antenna wall-mounting
assemblies are available at your local computer store or
retailer who sells directional antennas or satellite
services. The directional antenna uses a
U
-bolt with a
nut on each end. Slide the mounting clamp through the
two eyeholes on the backside of the directional antenna,
then secure the clamp to the mounting equipment that
you chose.
A Brief Word About Safety
If you chose to mount the antenna high up on a wall,
make sure that you use the appropriate type of ladder.
Follow ladder safety tips provided by its manufacturer. RadioLAN recommends that you have a partner available
to secure the ladder and to offer assistance while you are on the ladder. RadioLAN recommends that you not
mount the unit during stormy weather, on windy days, or anywhere near electrical cables.
