Cisco Multiband Indoor 4G Volcano Antenna (ANT-4G-CM-IN-TNC)

  

If you are installing an antenna for the first time, for your own safety as well as others, seek professional assistance. Your 
Cisco sales representative can explain which mounting method to use for the size and type antenna you are about to install. 

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.

Find someone to help you—installing an antenna is often a two-person job.

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.
