Monopole Antenna Mounting Options

Mounting a Monopole Antenna to a Metal Beam or Metal Ceiling

Setup Instructions

See Diagram K

Follow the instructions for mounting to a metal equipment rack, orienting the antenna downward rather than upward.

Mounting a Monopole Antenna to a Non-Conductive Surface

See Diagram L

Follow the instructions for mounting to a metal equipment rack, however, there are two additional steps:

1Connect a length of flexible antenna (appropriate to the frequency you are using) on the ground post of the antenna module under the Hex Kep nut. You will NOT use the shorting plate in this configuration.

2Drill a hole in the non-conductive surface and run the flexible antenna through the hole. This antenna will provide the ground for your antenna since the non-conductive surface cannot supply a ground.

If you are mounting the monopole upside down on a ceiling, run the flexible length inside the ceiling and stretch it out as far as possible from the monopole antenna element. Secure the antenna through the connection lug at the end of the wire.
