Preface
This guide describes the requirements that are needed for the successful installation of the RoamAbout outdoor antennas used in a RoamAbout wireless network.

ELECTRICAL HAZARD: Only qualified personnel should perform installation procedures for outdoor antennas.
The RoamAbout outdoor antennas need to be installed by an antenna installation professional who can determine, provide, and install the necessary support structure and grounding system. The antenna installation professional should be licensed or certified in accordance with local regulations.
