Mounting the Antenna

Mounting the RoamAbout 4.9 to 5.9 GHz Sector Panel Antennas

You can mount the RoamAbout 4.9 to 5.9 GHz sector panel antenna (RBTES‐AW‐S1590M) to a wide or narrow mast.

Notes: Wide masts have dimensions of 1.25 to 2.5 inches [1.66 to 2.88 Outside Dimensions (OD)] for Schedule 40 pipe.

Narrow masts have dimensions of less than 1.25 inches (1.66 OD) for Schedule 40 pipe.

The RoamAbout 4.9 to 5.9 GHz sector panel antenna kit includes the following hardware:

Two U‐brackets

Four mounting brackets

Four flat washers, and hex nuts

Two channel washers

Two external flaps

Eight screws and flat washers (for external flap installation)

Figure 3‐15 and Figure 3‐16 illustrate how to mount the 4.9 to 5.9 GHz sector panel antenna on a wide or narrow mast. Table 3‐13 lists the mast mounting components.

Refer to Mounting the RoamAbout 2.4 GHz Directional Antenna” on page 3‐10 for the exact instructions for mounting this antenna to a wide or narrow mast.

If you desire to use a 60 degree horizontal beamwidth, refer to the procedure following Table 3‐14 to install optional external flaps on both sides of the antenna as shown in Figure 3‐17.
