Plaza ae Holtsville, NY 11742 - 1300 ML-2499-BYGA2-01 2.4 - 2.5 GHz Antenna Lightning Arrester and Cable Assemblies ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION Important Warning: Two pairs of weep holes are provided in the radome one for vertical mounting and one for horizontal mounting. You must fill the unused pair of weep holes with adhesive dots prior to mounting or unwanted leakage into the radome may result (see instructions). APPLICATION __ The ML-2499-BYGA2-01 is a complete kit consisting of a highly directional 15-element Yagi enclosed in a UV stable weatherproof radome. This antenna provides extended point-

to-point link coverage, or sharply focused zonal coverage for 2.4-GHz ISM applications. Lis The ML-2499-BYGA2-01 and all associated equipment should be installed in accordance with applicable local and national electrical code guidelines to ensure safe operation. ANTENNA LOCATION The antenna may be mounted at interior or exterior locations. For link installations, a line-of-sight path between antennas works best. Although 2.4 GHz signals penetrate cubical dividers and interior partitions with little attenuation, reinforced block walls, banks of metal cabinets, or steel shelving may attenuate signals or cause multipath, a condition where Teflected signals interfere with the primary signal. Because antenna beam width is restricted to 15-degrees each side of center, the PC2415SNA must be aimed accurately during installation in order to provide optimum gain and best performance. GENERAL MOUNTING INFORMATION The PC2415SNA is equipped with an articulating mount, and may be oriented for vertical or horizontal polarization. It accommodates mast sizes up to 2-1/8-inches (4.76 cm). 951533 3/03 Two sets of weep holes are provided in the PC2415NA radome one set is required for horizontal mounting and one set for vertical mounting. Prior to installation, the unused pair of weep holes must be plugged with adhesive dots to prevent leakage. Two small adhesive dots are supplied with each antenna for this purpose. Weep-hole locations are shown in Figure-A. 1. Vertical Mounting: When mounting vertically, find two weep holes on the broad flat side of the radome and cover with adhesive dots. 2. Horizontal Mounting: When mounting horizontally, find two (2) weep holes on the narrow edge of the radome and cover with adhesive dots. When adhesive dots are applied, check to ensure holes are fully closed. FIGURE A Coax Routing: During installation, av avoid any sharp bend or kink in the feed line. Also, avoid bending coax close to the radome where it may apply pressure to the wall of the cable grommet and compromise the water seal. Route coax downward-or provide a drip loop to ensure rainwater accumulating on the jacket flows away from the cable grommet in the radome. PSE She 1. Prior to mounting, find the arrow sticker on the radome. When mounting vertically, the arrow should always point upward. When mounting horizontally, the arrow sticker should always be on top of the radome. This positioning is required

(a) to ensure weep holes fall on the bottom of the antenna, and (b) to ensure proper phasing when multiple antennas are used with a harness. FIGURE B_ ASSEMBLY (cont. 2. Orient for the desired polarization and install the antenna base against the mast using the two U-bolts (04), four hex nuts (18), four lock washers (19) and two V-blocks

(63) provided in hardware kit. 3. If the antenna has an articulating mount, install the antenna ball into position and tilt for the desired elevation angle (Figure-D). Tighten the socket screw with the supplied wrench. 4. Rotate antenna to the desired directional position and tighten all hardware. FIGURE: c System grounding and lightning protection are essential especially for exterior-mounted antennas exposed to the elements (refer to the National Electrical Code). Never install an antenna where it may fall and contact electrical lines. Cis DISPLAY b)=1e) 010404 010118

ADHESIVE DOTS JUMPER KIT INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL) The jumper and arrester kits provide a convenient way to set up your link. For best results, tighten connectors securely and encapsulate exterior junctions with sealant tape. When routing cable, use drip loops to guide rain water away from the LAC4 and back of the antenna. CANM12BRBNMLA The Cushcraft lightning arrester kit has been designed to provide in-line lightning protection and can be easily integrated into the Cushcraft extension cable jumper system. The pre-made low loss cable assembly features high quality cable and N male connectors and easy to use connector wraps. It offers the user a fast, convenient method to remotely mount the antenna at a distance of up to 100 feet from the access point or bridge. CASNM120NM 10 ft. CASNM600NM 50 ft. CASNM300NM 25 ft.

In most cases, one 8-foot tod driven into moist soilor multiple rods bonded together will provide adequate grounding (see National Electrical Code guidelines). To connect the LAC4 to ground, use a very short and direct run of #10 solid copper wire (or equivalent). For exterior installations, weatherproof coax connectors with a suitable mastic or rubberized tape to prevent water incursion

(see Photo1). Be sure to install in an accessible location that permits periodic inspection and (as needed) replacement of the gas cartridge. Provide drip loops in cables to prevent water from entering the building (see Photo 2). Photo 4 Sealant Tape #10 Ground Lead or Rubberized Protectant oe ==

Slots for wall mounting The AP 300 Access Port has one RJ-45 connector supporting an 10/100 Ethernet port and requires 802.3af-compliant power from an external source. The AP 300 Access Port comprises two 802.11 radios: an 802.11b/g radio operating in the 2.4 to 2.5Ghz band and an 802.11a radio operating in the 4.9 to 5.875Ghz band. Each radio has an embedded controller which runs local firmware used to perform the functions of the lower 802.11 MAC. All upper MAC functions and MAC management are controlled by the Wireless Switch. Motherboard firmware enables the unit to boot after either a power up or a watchdog reset. After self-boot, the motherboard sends an I am alive message into the network to be adopted and loaded with the actual runtime code. The boot firmware on the motherboard and the firmware downloaded from the switch can be updated via the Ethernet interface from the Wireless Switch.

The AP 300 receives power through the Ethernet cable, optionally connected to a Port Power Injectorfor example, Symbol Model AP-

PSBIAS-T-12-AF Power Injector 12 Port. See the Symbol web site for available PoE devices. Review installation plans to determine device placement and cable routing. The AP 300 Access Port comprises two 802.11 radios: an 802.11b/g radio operating in the 2.4 to 2.5Ghz band and an 802.11a radio operating in the 4.9 to 5.875Ghz band. Each radio has an embedded controller which runs local firmware used to perform the functions of the lower 802.11 MAC. All upper MAC functions and MAC management are controlled by the Wireless Switch. Motherboard firmware enables the AP 300 to boot after either a power up or a watchdog reset. After self-boot, the motherboard sends an I am alive message into the network to be adopted and loaded with the actual runtime code. The boot firmware on the motherboard and the firmware downloaded from the switch can be modified via the Ethernet interface from either the Wireless Switch or by other Symbol diagnostic software tools. LED Indicators The LED activity indicators appear on the top of the case for a wall mount. With the unit mounted above a ceiling, the LEDs are at the center of an oval badge on the ceiling; a light pipe enables the view through the ceiling tile. Wall Mount Above Ceiling Mount LEDs LEDs The LEDs provide a status display indicating error conditions, transmission, and network activity for the 802.11a (amber) radio or the 802.11b/g (green) radio. FINAL.Not for distribution. 802.11a Activity LED Amber 5 Booting Normal Error The amber LED flashes three times per second until firmware is loaded. During boot, no 802.11a mobiles can associate. After adoption, the amber LED is steady or flashes with 802.11a radio traffic. The amber LED flashes once per second if an error prevents the 802.11a radio from operating normally. 802.11b/g Activity LED Green Booting Normal Error The green LED flashes three times per second until firmware is loaded.

The AP 300 receives power through the Ethernet cable, optionally connected to a Port Power Injectorfor example, Symbol Model AP-

PSBIAS-T-12-AF Power Injector 12 Port. See the Symbol web site for available PoE devices. Review installation plans to determine device placement and cable routing. The AP 300 Access Port comprises two 802.11 radios: an 802.11b/g radio operating in the 2.4 to 2.5GHz band and an 802.11a radio operating in the 4.9 to 5.875GHz band. Each radio has an embedded controller which runs local firmware used to perform the functions of the lower 802.11 MAC. All upper MAC functions and MAC management are controlled by the Wireless Switch. Motherboard firmware enables the AP 300 to boot after either a power up or a watchdog reset. After self-boot, the motherboard sends an I am alive message into the network to be adopted and loaded with the actual runtime code. The boot firmware on the motherboard and the firmware downloaded from the switch can be modified via the Ethernet interface from either the Wireless Switch or by other Symbol diagnostic software tools. LED Indicators The LED activity indicators on the top of the case provide a status display indicating error conditions, transmission, and network activity for the 802.11a (amber) radio or the 802.11b/g (green) radio. 802.11a Activity LED Amber Booting Normal Error The amber LED flashes three times per second until firmware is loaded. During boot, no 802.11a mobiles can associate. After adoption, the amber LED is steady or flashes with 802.11a radio traffic. The amber LED flashes once per second if an error prevents the 802.11a radio from operating normally. 802.11b/g Activity LED Green Booting Normal Error The green LED flashes three times per second until firmware is loaded. During boot, no 802.11b/g mobiles can associate. After adoption, the green LED is steady or flashes with 802.11b/g radio traffic. The green LED flashes once per second if an error prevents the 802.11b/g radio from operating normally.
