PRECAUTION
1. Makesuretheconnectorsarecleanandfreefromanymetal
flakes/dirt&tightentheconnectorsusingtorquewrench
accordingtoconnectortorquespecificationbelow.
2. Avoid extreme bending to the cables.
3. During installation of the antenna, cables should not be
crossing one another.
4. Do not remove the dust cap from connectors when not in used.
TheAP-ANT-40antennaisdesignedandoptimizedfor WLAN
MIMO system requirements covering a wide range of operating
frequency. The covered frequency range includes the
bandof2300-2700/4900-6000 MHz.Theantennaofferslowcross
correlationbetweenthe fourradiatingelementssuitableforMIMO
applications.
APPLICATION
Forbestresults,mounttheantennanearthecenterofthecoverage
area.Aline‐of‐sightpathbetweentheantennaandactivefloor
locationsgenerallyworksbest.Althoughsignalspenetratecubical
dividersandinteriorwallswithlittleattenuation,reinforcedblock
walls,banksofmetalcabinets,orsteelshelvingmayattenuate
signalsorcausemultipath,aconditionwherereflectedsignals
interferewiththeprimarysignalpath.Avoidmountingnexttoa
columnorverticalsupportthatcouldcreatea“shadowzone”of
reducedcoveragetooneportionoftheroom.
LOCATION
Athreadedpostonthebackoftheantennaandasupplied
mountingnutaretheprimarymountingmethodwhenaccess
isavailabletobothsidesofthemountingsurface,suchasa
suspendedceilingtile.Markthedesiredmountinglocationon
thetileandcutaø40mm(1.57”)holeforthreadedpost.Feed
thecablesthroughtheholeandsecuretheantennawiththe
mountingnut.(Seefigure1).
