Antenna Placement
Use the following guidelines when mounting antennas:
• Antennas and receivers must cover the same
frequency range.
• Mount antennas at least four feet apart for optimal
diversity.
• Position antennas so there is nothing obstructing
a line of sight to the transmitter (including the
audience).
Positioning Antennas for Diversity Reception
The UA864 is a polarized antenna and must be oriented correctly to optimize reception for each transmitter type. Position the antennas using the following guidelines:
Note: Use the gain switch as an indicator of the antenna orientation.

Mounting to a wall or ceiling
Installation Steps
1. Align the mounting plate:
Junction box mounting: Align the mounting plate with the junction box so that at least two screws can be used.
Wall mounting: Use the mounting plate as a template to mark the location for the holes on the mounting surface. Drill
the holes accordingly.
2. Secure the mounting plate to the surface with the washers as shown (CAUTION: Do not over-tighten screws).
3. If running RF cable from inside the wall, guide it through the opening in the mounting plate and connect the cable to
the antenna output.
4. Position the antenna mounting posts over the keyhole slots in the mounting plate and slide it into the locked position.

Routing the Cable
The output connector can be routed through ports 1 or 2 on the
antenna. When connecting to an RF cable in the wall, run the
cable through the opening in the mounting plate.
Rotating the Cover
The cover can be detached and rotated in any direction for a matched appearance when using multiple antennas.
1. Remove the screws holding the cover in place from the back of the antenna
2. Remove the cover and rotate to the desired position
3. Replace the screws to secure the cover
Painting the Antenna
The cover of the antenna can be painted to match the installation environment. Use the following guidelines when painting the antenna cover:
• Remove the antenna cover before painting
• Only use non-metallic paint, as any metallic content may interfere with
RF reception
• Allow the paint to dry completely before reinstalling the cover
• Avoid painting in the screw holes
Warning: Do not touch the internal components of the antenna when the cover is removed.
