Install an indoor omnidirectional antenna (Canada)
Use the procedure in this section to install an indoor, omnidirectional antenna (Canada only). Use
the following guidelines to install an indoor omnidirectional antenna:
Use the bracket supplied to install the antenna on a wall or ceiling. This bracket provides the
necessary clearance between the floor or wall and the antenna.
Mount the bracket so that the external antenna is vertical. The recommended installation
position on a wall is halfway between the floor and the ceiling.
Figure 174 shows the two methods of installing the indoor omnidirectional external antenna.

1 Insert the antenna in the bracket so that the antenna is vertical.
2 Use two screws to install the bracket to the wall or ceiling.
3 Clamp the cable to the mounting surface to prevent cable stress on the coaxial cable.
4 Connect the external antenna to the appropriate base station.
5 This procedure is complete.
Note: The length of the coaxial cable must not exceed 10 m (33 ft.).
