Connect External Antennas
When deploying a SMC2888W-M Master bridge unit for a bridge
link or access point operation, you need to mount external
antennas and connect them to the bridge. Typically, a bridge link
requires a 5 GHz antenna, and access point operation a 2.4 GHz
antenna. SMC2888W-S Slave units also require an external
antenna for 2.4 GHz operation.
Perform these steps:
1. Mount the external antenna to the same supporting structure
as the bridge, within 3 m (10 ft) distance, using the bracket
supplied in the antenna package.
