Accessory Antennas
Sonetics has accessory antennas for temporary and permanent installation on
the exterior of a vehicle or building. To ensure the best system performance,
external antennas must not be mounted inside metal enclosures.
Magnet Mount Antenna
This antenna is designed for non-permanent installations on metallic surfaces.
1.
Temporarily mark the center of the vehicle’s roof or trunk. Centering the
antenna on a flat metal area will improve ground plane and increase range.
2.
Clean the marked area with rubbing alcohol or other non-corrosive cleaner
to prepare the surface. Let it dry completely.
3.
Cut a round piece of felt the same size as the bottom of the magnet mount
and place it on your center mark. Set the magnetic antenna on top of the
felt to protect to the vehicle’s paint from scratches. Use of a felt patch will
slightly reduce the strength of the magnet. Make sure the coaxial cable is
pointed toward where it will enter the vehicle.
4.
Open the hood or the trunk. Route the cable through a body panel gap to
get to the base station location.
5.
Connect the cable to the antenna connector on your Wireless Base Station.
Do not over tighten the antenna! Finger tight plus 1/8
th
a turn is sufficient.
Permanent Mount Antenna
This antenna is designed for permanent installation. Have a qualified radio
installer perform the installation.
