Chapter 4 Upgrading the 2.4-GHz Radio
Upgrade Overview
Upgrade Overview
This section provides instructions for upgrading the access point 2.4-GHz radio. The following
operations summarize the upgrade procedure:
1. Remove all cables and power connections from the access point.
2. Follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures.
3. Place the access point on an ESD-protected work surface.
4. Open the access point’s 2.4-GHz radio access cover.
5. For an access point without a 2.4-GHz radio feature, remove the blank spacer card.
6. For an access point with a 2.4-GHz radio feature, remove the existing 2.4-GHz radio card.
7. Install the new 2.4-GHz radio card.
8. Close the access point 2.4-GHz radio access cover.
Caution ESD can damage the Cisco Aironet radio and the internal components of the access point. It is
recommended that the 2.4-GHz radio upgrade procedures be performed by an ESD-trained service
technician at an ESD-protected workstation.
