Install Antennas With One Connector (optional)
You can optionally use an external antenna setup with your AP300 if the controller and APs are running
System Director 3.6.1MR4 or 4.0.
When deploying an AP300 with only one antenna per radio, AP300 cannot support 802.11n MIMO oper-
ation. Also, any antenna ports that are not used to connect to an antenna must be terminated with 50
ohm Reverse Polarity SMA terminators. (For a list of approved terminators, see http://www.merunet-
works.com/merusupport.) Connect the antenna using one cable per radio as described in the table
below. These instructions can be used to replace an AP200 existing antenna configuration with an
AP300. For these instructions, each port on the AP300 is identified by a label A1 to A6.
