Cisco Catalyst IW9167E - Page 18

Do not connect omnidirectional antennas directly to both ports 1 - 4 and ports 5 - 8. To avoid interference
between the 5 GHz radios, use coaxial cables and mount one set of antennas at least 3 ft. (1 m) vertically away
from the antennas attached directly to the chassis. Omnidirectional antennas may be connected to either ports
1 - 4 or 5 - 8, but not to any combination of both 5 GHz radios' antenna ports simultaneously.
If you connect directional antennas to both 5 GHz radios, space them at least 10 ft. (3 m) apart vertically, or
at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) apart horizontally with their main beams aimed at least 90 degrees apart.
