Installing the Optional Mounting Bracket Kit

Using an optional antenna mounting bracket kit, the AIR-ANT5114P2M-N antenna can be mounted directly on an access point in a strand mount or pole mount environment. The antenna bracket kit contains four bracket sections and fasteners that you can assemble in multiple configurations to position and aim the directional antenna in a range of positions. For more information on mounting the antenna with the optional mounting bracket, refer to Installing Antenna Brackets on Cisco 1550 Series Outdoor Mesh Access Points.
