S24512BPX
2.4 and 5.5 GHz High Performance Antenna
Important Notice: Please read all instructions
carefully before attempting to install and use this
product.
SAFETY
The S24512BPX and all associated equipment should
be installed in accordance with applicable local and
national electrical code guidelines to ensure safe
operation.
LOCATION
For best results, mount the S24512BPX at ceiling or
roof level near the center of the coverage area. A lineof-sight path between the antenna and active floor
location generally works best. Although 2.4 GHz signals
penetrate cubical dividers and interior partitions with little
attenuation, reinforced block walls, banks of metal
cabinets, or steel shelving may attenuate signals or
cause multipath, a condition where reflected signals
interfere with the primary signal. Avoid mounting next
to a column or vertical support that could create a shadow
zone of reduced coverage to one portion of the room.
Each antenna comes with a ceiling-tile support-runner
mount and a U-bolt style pole mount.
APPLICATIONS
Laird Technologies' S24512BPX is a ruggedized
performance omnidirectional collinear antenna
highused for 2.4 and 5.5 GHz RF-distribution systems.
Its flattened radiation pattern focuses energy along
the horizontalplane to provide extended coverage
in
large rooms or vaulted areas (see Figure-1).
The S24512BPX may also be pole-mounted for
use in exterior locations.

MOUNTING
MOUNTING (cont.)
To install the antenna using the ceiling bracket:
1. Find the antenna bracket (77). Also, find two #6 phillips head screws (90)
and two #6 lock washers (89). Use the #6 hardware to secure the antenna
bracket to the antenna base (see Figure-1).
2. Find the tile runner bracket (HK). Remove the 1/4" - 20 hex nut and flat
washer from the bracket's carriage bolt in preparation for mounting.
Discard the flat washer-this will not be used.
3. Find the 1/4" lock washer (16). Insert the antenna bracket onto the
threaded end of the tile-bracket bolt (Figure-1). Install the 1/4"
lock washer and nut loosely-the halves of the tile bracket must slide
freely for final installation.
4. Clamp the ceiling bracket onto the support runner and tighten the 1/4"
mounting nut using a 7/16" wrench or adjustable wrench. Secure the
coaxial cable along the support runner using tape or cable ties.
5. If installing one antenna, attach the connector to the AP unit's Primary
antenna connection. If installing a diversity system, attach the leads
from the two antennas to the AP unit's Primary and Secondary jacks.
To install the antenna using the I-beam bracket:
1. For I-beam installations, first install bracket plate (77) as described
in Step-1.Next, referring to Figure-1A, install I-beam clamp (80) to the
bracket plate using flat washer (04), lock washer (84), and short 1/4"-20
bolt (55). Tighten the clamp bolt to secure antenna in place on beam.

To install the antenna using the pole mount bracket:
1. Find the U-bolt (05), mast clamp (26), plus two 5/16" nuts (18) lock
washers (19) and (02) flat washers.
2. At the top of the pipe, using a 1/2" wrench or adjustable wrench, secure
the U-bolt to the clamp using the hardware provided (see Figure-2).
3. Find two more 5/16" nuts (18). Install these nuts by turning them down
against the nuts securing the U-bolt to the mast.
4. Find two antenna clamps (48), plus two 5/16" lock washers (19) and
the two remaining 5/16" nuts (18).
5. Sandwich the antenna between the two clamps at its base and slide
this assembly onto the U-bolt (Figure-2). Secure in place using
hardware provided.
6. Secure the coaxial cable along the mast or pole using tape or cable
ties.
7. If installing one antenna, attach the connector to the AP unit's Primary
antenna connection. If installing a diversity system, attach the leads
from the two antennas to the AP unit's Primary and Secondary jacks.
Note: for outside mounting or in wet environments,
make sure antenna is vertically mounted with weep holes
facing down.
