Installing the outdoor antennas
Outdoor antennas fall into directional and omnidirectional antennas. Omnidirectional antennas can be
installed on the AP directly. The following section describes how to install directional and omnidirectional
antennas.
Installing a directional antenna on a pole
NOTE:
Make sure that the location of the pole does not hamper the adjustment of antenna direction and tilt.
Before you install a directional antenna on the pole, make sure that the pole is vertical to the rooftop
surface.
To install a directional antenna:
1. Weld the lightning rod to the tip of the pole.
2. Install the pole on a parapet or cement pier.
