Wireless Sensor Network
2.1.5 Antenna Options
All CWS wireless sensors contain a built-in 0 dBd 1/4 wave antenna. No other 
antenna options are available for the wireless sensors. 
The CWB100 Wireless Base Station has a RPSMA connector for use with one 
of several models of antenna. The base station does not automatically ship 
with an antenna, so one must be ordered as a separate item. Antenna options 
available for the CWB100 and CWB100A include the following:

Larger outdoor antenna models require a cable to connect to the CWB100.

RG8 cable. A surge suppressor kit, part number 14462, is required for 
connecting the COAXNTN-L cable to the CWB100.
