External Antenna Mount for AIR-ANT5160NP-R

I about to embark on a project to create a wireless bridge using a pair of Cisco Aironet 1252's, which will be mounted internally, and a pair of Cisco Aironet 5-GHz MIMO 6-dBi Patch Antenna (AIR-ANT5160NP-R), which will be mounted externally.
Could anyone suggest the best way to mount the antenna? Both will be mounted to steel upper wall of the building (its brick below this). I couldn't find any specific mounting kits.

My bad on the metal wall mounting, it was late and I was tired.
Now  that I have slept some here is what I am thinking.  Why use the MIMO  patch antenna?  On such a short link you can use an omni stick.  Then  mount this to a wall mount antenna bracket such as this -  http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=wall+mount+antenna+brackets&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=6140961992914474386&ei=NCXlTKHiIYKglAfVw6XjCw&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CC8Q8wIwAA#
You  would only need one bracket for each location and can secure the  bracket to the metal wall with either large self tapping screws or using  butterfly bolts.
If you are worried about your  signal propogation then make sure your link is encrypted with AES and  that your power is at minimum to establish the 54M link.
I would use the AIR-ANT5160V-R antenna.

  • Is external antenna required for Late 2004 Bluetooth to function?

    I have a G5 Late 2004 with the blue module installed, but i don't have the external antenna. Is this required for operation, or is my module bad? It shows up in profiler,but won't connect to anything. Also, if it is required, does anyone know a good place to purchase one.

    Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology, and you're going to shorten that extensively if you don't have an antenna. As you're seeing, it probably won't even work without the antenna.
    The external antenna is about $30 from Mac-pro.com.
    Are you missing the Airport antenna as well? Both antennas were in the same bag, as I recall.

  • External Antenna Adapter for Centro?

    I'm looking for an antenna adapter so I can attach an external antenna for my new Centro. I realize that it's brand new, so I haven't seen any specific adapters for it. However, are there other phones (like older Treos) that use the same size?
    If I don't find one, I'll have to return it because the signals are terrible at my house without an antenna.

    AT&T is supposedly experimenting with "femtocells" (I think I spelled that correctly!) 
    Small stations that rebroadcast cellular reception, similar to Wifi routers.

  • Antenna mounting question - AIR-ANT2506

    I was told by a wifi tech that the "pipe bomb" antenna [air-ant2506] should be installed upside down when installing inside a building, ie warehouse.
    When I go to the hardware installation page for the antenna, Cisco makes no statement regarding this....they clearly show the antenna with the metal end at the bottom, not top.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/antenna/installation/guide/ant2506.html
    Ultimately does it really matter which end is up if you are mounting inside? Just as long as it's vertical correct?

    You are right.... as long as they are verticle you should not have any issues. The reason why they might ask you to face it downward is due to code in some area's..... code sometimes states that there will not be any objects facing upward.... just in case someone falls. So it is more of a safety aspect.

  • Need external antenna connector for old Nokia 5110...

    Hi all, this is a long shot I admit, but doesn anyone know what type of connector (and where to purchase) was used on the old 5110/6110 Nokia phones, it is the external connector located on the rear behind the rubber grommit use for the car kits... I need some of those connectors.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi omega1
    I should be able to help you.
    If you want to connect your 6110/6150/7110 to an external connector, we have a adaptor lead to do just this.
    Plugs into rear antenna socket with short lead to fme plug - then you can connect your antenna cable to this.
    Let me know how many you need.

  • Any recommendations on external hard drives for Air?

    The couple of external hard drives I used for time machine etc. are firewire based. (The alternatives for making them usb friendly do not work with the Air.) Any recommendations on a good, self powered external, about 500gb? Thanks.

    I only buy 2.5" internal drives and place them in Macally enclosures. I've had store bought all-in-one externals and they have not been reliable, and many are installing all kinds of software on them, via firmware, and you can't do much about it. I've never had one problem over the years going this route, and drives are so cheap now, you can get the enclosure plus a 500GB drive for just over $100.00 at macsales.com
    The Macally's have FW/USB interfaces. I have the new MBA, and use USB.

  • Best iPhone 5 external antenna solution for use in a vehicle Australia

    I will be doing a fair bit of driving through regional Australia where Telstra (and other telco) reception is very poor to non existent without using some kind of antenna to increase reception range. From my research I have found several solutions, my pick being the smoothtalker cradle and high gain 6.5dB antenna.  I would like to know if anyone has experience with this particular solution as well as other solutions other people are using or know of. Thanks in advance.

    I have a friend that uses the Wilson Cell Phone Vehicle Signal Booster in poor reception areas. It claims to boost reception by as much as 25 times. Not sure about all that but it certainly helps!

  • AIR-ANT2506 External Antenna Coverage Range

    I've got an AIR-ANT2506 external antenna mounted on the side of a metal building.  Hand-held Teklogix scanners connect to the AP and scan material outside.  What kind of coverage range can I expect from the AP?  Also, what's the recommended height for the AP to be mounted?

    I've got an AIR-ANT2506 external antenna mounted on the side of a metal building.
    Oh nuts.  This is not gonna sound good. 
    The ANT2506 is a 2.4Ghz omni-directional antenna.  If you point the antenna to your face, for instance, the signal is a near perfect circle, however, pair this with "the side of a metal building" and you've just literally turned an omni-directional antenna to a directional antenna.
    Also, what's the recommended height for the AP to be mounted?
    Maximum height is 10 feet.  Make sure your antenna has clear line-of-sight.  Any metalic or concrete obstruction can disperse the wireless signal.

  • External antenna for iPhone4 in car to reduce radiation

    I want to use my iPhone for navigation and phone in the car but I'm worried about radiation.
    A few weeks ago the WHO is warning about healthproblems and brain-cancer based on using cellular phones also.
    Is there any external antenna product for the iPhone 4, so the antenna of the iPhone itself will be deactivated after connect (by using inside the car)?

    as far as I know there is no option for an external antenna
    but navigation is gps which mean it don't transmit any signals at all (so it don't create any radiation whatsoever)
    only part that create "radiation" is the phone and wifi part as they are 2 way systems which both recieve and transmit data

  • Car Cradle for Charging and External Antenna Compatible with Tour

    Is there a car kit that allows easy charging and connection to external antenna for the Tour?  I had Comfort Cradles by Bury for my last two BlackBerrys, but I just was disappointed to learn that Bury does not have or even plan one for the Tour.  Any suggestions?  If I had known this before, I probably would have stayed with my 8830.  Thanks.

    To answer my own query - I just spoke to someone at Smoothtalker and was informed that Smoothtalker will be releasing a charging cradle, with external antenna conttection, for the "Tour" in "about a month." 
    I still would be interested in hearing from anyone else with any information concerning this.
    Thank you,.

    Hi Gang, Is there anybody out there that knows if the "H Squared Air Mount for Air Port Extreme" wall mount will fit the TC? Thanks & Happy New Year Too All

    You will need to buy the one designed especially for the Time Capsule here http://www.h-sq.com/store/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi listed as Air Mount TC. The Apple Store currently doesn't list the new one for the Time Capsule and for some reason is only selling the older one for the Airport Extreme.

  • External Antenna for 1240AG is Required?

    Hi guys,
    1. Do the external antennas are required for 1240AG or they are optional or it depends on mounting location and location size?
    2. If it's required and I want to just use 2.4Ghz radio, do I need to buy two antennas or one is enough?
    3.If it's required, do you have any recommendation for a small office with a small warehouse? something like AIR-ANT4941 maybe?

    Hi,
    here are the answers..
    1. Do the external antennas are required for 1240AG or they are optional or it depends on mounting location and location size?
    ANS - 1242 NEED the External antennas, without the antena 1242 APs will not work.
    2. If it's required and I want to just use 2.4Ghz radio, do I need to buy two antennas or one is enough?
    ANS - There are many advantages of using 2 antennas, one of them is Multipath and there are many to pen down..
    3.If it's required, do you have any recommendation for a small office with a small warehouse? something like AIR-ANT4941 maybe?
    ANS - Here is the antenna accessories link, choose the one which meets your requirements!!
