Mounting on a Flat Surface 4
When mounting the antenna on a flat vertical surface, you must
provide a smooth surface for the backing plate. On wall surfaces
such as brick, block or stucco, install an intermediate plate
between the wall and the backing plate. The intermediate plate
must be strong enough to prevent distortion of the backing plate
and the plastic antenna mounting base when the mounting
hardware is tightened.
To mount the antenna proceed as follows:
1. Verify that you have all the items required for your particular
installation:
• The RoamAbout 14-dBi Directional Antenna
• A backing plate (included with antenna)
• An intermediate plate (not included)
• All mounting hardware required for your particular
installation
• All tools required for your particular installation
2. Note the arrows on the antenna mounting base.
3. Mount the antenna with the arrows pointing up.
4. Attach the antenna mounting base, metal backing plate and
intermediate plate to the wall using hardware required for your
particular installation (see Figure 4-2).
