AP-5131 Access Point Product Reference Guide

suite supporting the 2.4 GHz band and another antenna suite supporting the 5.2 GHz band. Select an
antenna model best suited to the intended operational environment of your AP-5131.
Antenna connectors for Radio 1 are located in a different location from the Radio 2 antenna
connectors. On single radio versions, the R-SMA connectors can support both bands and should be
connected to a R-SMA dual-band antenna or an appropriate single band antenna. If necessary a R-
SMA to R-BNC adapter (Part No. 25-72178-01) can be purchased separately from Symbol.
The 2.4 GHz antenna suite includes the following models:
NOTE On a single-radio AP-5131, Radio 1 can be configured to be either a 2.4
GHz or 5.2 GHz radio. On a dual-radio model, Radio 1 refers to the AP-
5131’s 2.4 GHz radio and Radio 2 refers to the AP-5131 5.2 GHz radio.
However, there could be some cases where a dual-radio AP-5131 is
performing a Rogue AP detector function. In this scenario, the AP-5131 is
receiving in either 2.4 GHz or 5.2 GHz over the Radio 1 or Radio 2
antennae depending on which radio is selected for the scan.
