connector.
Installation Notes
This antenna is designed to be mounted directly to the access point. For information about orienting the
dipole antenna, see the hardware installation guide for your access point.
In addition to antenna orientation, wireless access point installation location with respect to all wireless
clients plays a significant role in determining overall network performance. Clients at the furthest
coverage points might have 10% to 50% of the bandwidth of clients close to it. Wireless network
coverage in one area or location might need to be lowered to improve the performance of other clients.
