Mounting the Wireless Bridge
Mounting a wireless bridge unit is optional. If desired, you can simply leave the
unit standing freely on a table surface. Whether to mount the unit on a wall or
ceiling will usually depend on the length of the cable extending from the
bridge unit to the antenna.
1 Detach all cables from the wireless bridge so that you can safely and easily
mount the unit.
2 Remove the bottom mounting plate, as shown in the following figure.
3 Install the bottom mounting plate where desired with the supplied
mounting hardware.
4 Place the wireless bridge on the mounting plate and snap it into place.
Ensure that the bridge is secure.
Do not reattach network and power cables until after you have installed
and connected the antenna, as described in the next section.
Mounting the Antenna
Each 3Com Wireless Building-to-Building Bridge requires an appropriate
antenna:
An omnidirectional antenna for point-to-multipoint communications
I
or
A flat-panel antenna for point-to-point communications
I
Neither antenna is supplied with your wireless bridge: you must obtain the
antenna as a separate 3Com accessory. Refer to the user guide for more
information on antenna selection and positioning.
