Metal strap open space

 

 

 

Caution

Do not place the metal straps in the large open area between the pole clamp bracket and the strap brackets

 

 

 

 

because this does not properly secure the access point.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4

Position the pole clamp bracket on the pole as needed before tightening the metal bands.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

When the metal bands are tightened to the full tension, the pole clamp bracket cannot be adjusted

 

 

 

 

 

 

unless the metal bands are cut or disassembled.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 5

Tighten the metal bands using the banding strap tool (BAND IT) (Cisco AIR-BAND-INST-TL=) by

 

 

 

 

following the operating instructions in the box with the tool. Ensure that the metal bands are as tight as

 

 

 

 

possible.

 

 

 

Step 6

Place the mounting bracket onto the pole clamp bracket support bolt (see Figure 2-12).

 

 

 

Step 7

For vertical poles, position the mounting bracket as shown in Figure 2-12. For horizontal streetlight

 

 

 

 

poles, rotate the mounting bracket 90o from the position shown in Figure 2-12.
