Once you’ve identified the best location for your antenna(s), it’s time to set up a provisional
install. You’ll keep your antenna(s) outside at the location you’ve selected, but run the cables
and test your router/gateway indoors.
Don’t drill any holes in your walls yet!
Start with a temporary install and test performance first.
If you purchased the complete kit with your 4x4 MIMO antenna(s), follow the steps below
to assemble and install your 4x4 MIMO External Antenna kit
. If you just purchased just the
antenna, your assembly may look a little different.
Getting the Complete Kit Set Up
Refer to the diagram to the right as needed.
1
Secure your 4x4 MIMO Panel Antenna or Log Periodic Antennas to your mount if you
haven’t already
. If your kit includes four Log Periodic Antennas, be sure to cross-polarize
them during this step, see section 2 for more information.
2
Mount the antenna(s) outdoors
in the location and direction where you found the
fastest data rates using the method described in section 3.
3
Connect your Quad-RS240 coax cables
to your MIMO Panel or Log Periodic Antennas.
OR, If you purchased lightning surge protectors
, connect your MIMO Antenna(s) to the
included 5 ft jumper cables, Lightning Surge Protectors, and Quad-RS240 coax cable.
Instructions on grounding are in the next section of the manual.
4
Connect the SMA ends
of your Quad-RS240 cable to the antenna ports on your router
and hand-tighten the connections.
OR, If your cellular router has TS9 or U.FL ports
, install the included pigtail adapters
between the Quad-RS240 cable and your router, and then hand-tighten the connections.
• Before attempting to route the cables through your building
, lay the Quad-RS240 cable out flat to
straighten it. This will make it easier to work with.
• A finger-tight connection is sufficient
to secure the connectors. Tools are not required to tighten them
and may cause damage.
• Unsure how your pigtail adapters should connect to on your router?
Refer to the information on page 8
to help you identify which ports to connect to.
