Attach antenna cable

The outdoor antenna can be installed either on a mast
or wall. It is recommended that the outdoor antenna is
always installed in clear line of sight and at the same
height as the access point’s antenna. It is also
recommended that an outdoor access point is used,
since even a window can reduce performace.

Notes:

• It is strongly recommended that you use a lightning arrester

when installing the outdoor antenna to protect your network.
