Cisco WPAN Dipole Antenna (ANT-WPAN-OD-OUT-N)
If any part of the antenna system should come in contact with a power line, do not touch it or try to remove it yourself. Call
your local power company to have it removed safely.
If an accident occurs with the power lines, call for qualified emergency help immediately.
Tools and Equipment Required
No tools are required to install the antenna. This does not include the tools and equipment required to install the router or to
assemble the tower, mast, or other structure you intend to mount the router and antenna on.
Mounting the Antenna
Follow these instructions to mount the antenna.
If installing the antenna on an IR529UWP-915S/K9 or IR529UBWP-915S/K9, screw the antenna’s N male connector onto
the N female connector on the chassis. Ensure that the connection is tight. See Single Antenna Advanced Range
Extender—Direct Connect Antenna Configuration in the Cisco IR500 Series WPAN Gateway and WPAN Range Extender
Installation and Configuration Guide.
If installing the antenna to a bulkhead adapter or lightning arrestor, install the lightning arrestor or adapter to the side of the
enclosure first, then screw the antenna onto the N female connector of the lightning arrestor or adapter. See Gateway
Enclosure Mounted Antenna Configuration in the Cisco IR500 Series WPAN Gateway and WPAN Range Extender Installation
and Configuration Guide.
NOTE: Coaxial cable loses efficiency as the frequency increases, resulting in signal loss. If a cable is used it should be kept as
short as possible because cable length also determines the amount of signal loss—the longer the cable length or run, the greater
the loss.
