Installing the Detached Antenna | Alvarion SW VERSION 5.1 guide

Installing the SU-I

3Connect the RF cable supplied with the antenna to the SMA jack located on the unit’s front panel. Install the antenna using the instructions provided in Section 2.5.5 on page 57, and connect to it the other end of the RF cable. Do not over-tighten the SMA connectors.

4If parameters are not pre-configured, configure the basic parameters as described in Section 3.1.

5Align the antenna as described in Section 3.3.

6Connect the 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connector to the data equipment. The cable connection should be a crossed Ethernet if connecting to a hub/switch and a straight cable if connecting directly to a PC Network Interface Card (NIC).

7Verify proper operation of the Ethernet link (see Table 2-5 for the Ethernet activity LED indication). To verify data connectivity from the end-user's PC or from a portable PC connected to the unit, ping a known device in the network, or try connecting to the Internet.

2.5.5Installing the Detached Antenna

The detached antenna kit includes the following components:

ALA04-200160 panel antenna

2 meter SMA-SMA (M/M) RF cable

Simple wall mounting kit, enabling installation on a wall (without any capability for adjusting the direction). For installation instructions see Section 0.

Wall mounting kit with rotation capability, enabling installation on a wall with capability for adjusting the direction. For installation instructions see Section 2.5.5.2.

Simple window mounting accessories, enabling installation on a glass window (without any capability for adjusting the direction). For installation instructions see Section 2.5.5.3.

Window mounting kit with rotation capability, enabling installation on a glass window (with rotation capability for adjusting the direction). For installation instructions see Section 2.5.5.4.
