Cisco Aironet Four-Element, MIMO, Dual-Band Ceiling Mount Omni-Directional Antenna (AIR-ANT2524V4C-R)
Choosing a Mounting Location
Mount the antenna mounted clear of obstructions to the sides of the radiating elements. Generally, the higher an antenna is
above the floor, the better it performs. If possible, mount the antenna on the ceiling panel within 12 in. (30.5 cm) of the access
point so you can connect its cables directly to the access point. If you must mount the antenna farther away from the access
point, try to make the distance as short as possible.
Installing the Antenna
You can install the antenna on a ceiling tile having a thickness between ½ in. (1.27 cm) and 1 in. (2.54 cm).
Tools and Equipment Required
The following tools and equipment are not provided:
 1" (2.54 cm) hole saw to create a hole in the suspended ceiling tile.
 A step ladder high enough to access your ceiling safely.
Installing the Antenna
The antenna is installed to a suspended ceiling tile with a supplied 1 in. (2.54 cm) plastic nut. See Ceiling Tile Mounting Details
for details.
The antenna cables terminate with a straight RP-TNC plug connector after a 36 in. (91.44 cm) cable. The mating connector to
the antenna on the access point is an RP-TNC jack.
