Step 3 Press the antenna cable into the receptacle on the top of the base as shown in Figure 1-6.

Step 4 Press the antenna straight down into the receptacle until it clicks into place.

Mounting the Antenna

Because the PCI card is a radio device, it is susceptible to RF obstructions and common sources of interference that can reduce throughput and range. Follow these guidelines to ensure the best possible performance:

•Place the PCI card’s antenna in an area where large steel structures such as shelving units, bookcases, and filing cabinets will not obstruct radio signals being transmitted or received.

•Place the antenna away from microwave ovens and 2.4- and 5.8-GHz cordless phones. These products can cause signal interference because they operate in the same frequency range as the PCI card.
