Note Because of differences in component configuration and physical environment, every

network application is a unique installation. Therefore, before you install the bridge or other

wireless network devices, do a site survey to determine the optimum placement of these

devices to maximize range, coverage, and network performance.

Installing the Antenna

Note If you plan to use a directional antenna, we recommend that you perform a carrier test

followed by an antenna alignment test to ensure optimum antenna performance. The test

procedures are described in the Cisco Aironet 350 Series Bridge Hardware Installation

Guide.

If the antenna will be outdoors, attach a lightning arrestor to the bridge's right antenna

Step 1

connector. Refer to the mounting instructions for the lightning arrestor.

Note The lightning arrestor provides surge protection to the bridge in the event of

a nearby lightning strike and is highly recommended for outdoor use.
