Follow all safety precautions when installing the antennas. Cisco does not support any third-party antennas. Cisco does not recommend any third-party antennas, and Cisco Technical Assistance Center will not be able to provide any support for third-party antennas.
When installing the antenna, take extreme care not to come into contact with such circuits, as they may cause serious injury or death. For proper installation and grounding of the antenna, please refer to national and local codes e. Before you install an antenna, contact your Cisco account representative to explain which mounting method to use for the size and type of antenna that you are about to install.
Select your installation site with safety, as well as performance, in mind. Remember that electric power lines and phone lines look alike. For your safety, assume that any overhead line can kill you. Contact your electric power company. Tell them your plans and ask them to come look at your proposed installation. Plan your installation carefully and completely before you begin.
Each person involved in an installation should be assigned to a specific task and should know what to do and when to do it. One person should be in charge of the operation to issue instructions and watch for signs of trouble.
When installing your antenna, follow these guidelines:. If the assembly starts to drop, move away from it and let it fall. Because the antenna, mast, cable, and metal guy wires are all excellent conductors of electrical current, even the slightest touch of any of these parts to a power line completes an electrical path through the antenna and the installer. If any part of the antenna system should come in contact with a power line, do not touch it or try to remove it yourself. Call your local power company to have it removed safely.
If an accident should occur with the power lines, call for qualified emergency help immediately. The antenna contains an array of three dual-band dipole antennas. Each of thee three dipole antennas is a dual-band antenna, covering both the 2. The antenna have a peak gain of about 3 dBi at 2. The antenna unit is gray weatherproof radome for outdoor operations.

Overvoltage transients can be created through lightning static discharges, switch processes, direct contact with power lines, or through earth currents.
A lightning arrestor installed according to these mounting instructions balances the voltage potential, thus preventing inductive interference to parallel signal lines within the protected system. Cisco recommends that you bulkhead mount the lightning arrestor so it can be installed as a wall-feed through on the wall of the protected space. The importance of obtaining a good ground and bonding connection cannot be overstressed. Consider these points when grounding the lightning arrestor:.
This lightning arrestor is designed to be installed between the antenna cable that is attached to an outdoor antenna and the Cisco Aironet wireless device. You can install the lightning arrestor either indoors or outdoors.
It can be connected directly to a wireless device having an external N connector. It can also be mounted inline or as a feed-through. Note This lightning arrestor is part of a lightning arrestor kit. The kit contains a lightning arrestor and a grounding lug. Note When you install the lightning arrestor, follow the regulations or best practices applicable to lightning protection installation in your local area.
If you install the lightning arrestor outdoors, use the supplied ground lug and a heavy wire 6 solid copper to connect it to a good earth ground, such as a ground rod. The connection should be as short as possible. Figure Lightning Arrestor Details. Coaxial cable loses efficiency as the frequency increases, resulting in signal loss. The cable should be kept as short as possible because cable length also determines the amount of signal loss the longer the run, the greater the loss.
Cisco recommends a high-quality, low-loss cable for use with the lightning arrestor. The access point must be grounded before connecting power. In all outdoor installations and when powering the access point with AC power, you must follow these instructions to properly ground the case:. Step 1 If using insulated 6-AWG copper ground wire, strip the insulation as required for the grounding lug.
Step 2 Use the appropriate crimping tool to crimp the bare 6-AWG copper ground wire to the supplied grounding lug. Note The grounding lug and hardware used must comply with local and national electrical codes. Step 3 Open the anti-corrosion sealant supplied , and apply a liberal amount over the metal surface where the ground strap screw holes are located see Figure Step 4 Connect the grounding lug to the access point grounding screw holes see Figure using the supplied two Phillips head screws M4 x10 mm with lock washers.
Tighten the grounding screw to 22 to 24 lb-in 2.
