Standard Antennas

The Snap-On Diversity antenna comes with the PC4500 and PC4800 and attaches directly to the PC Card. Its small size allows mobile communication in a small area (ad hoc network) where a larger antenna would be awkward or interfere with the use of the PC or terminal.

The design of the Snap-On and Remote Diversity antennas take full advantage of the PC Card’s ability to detect and use the strongest signal.

The Aironet 4000 Series Wireless LAN Adapter can also be used with a variety of optional external antennas. Consult the Aironet Antenna Guide (document number 710-003725) for antenna descriptions and configuration information.

NOTE: Only use antennas and cables supplied by Aironet Wireless Communications.
