Wireless Access

Hello,

I want to install AP 104 with external antenna-18 using only one spatial stream (chain 0), do I connect ANT-18 to R0/A0 and R1/A0 using both 2.4HGz and 5GHZ??.

Can I use any cable from ANT-18 except the central cable interchangeably to connect to port R0/A0 and R1/A0?

Is there some way to disable chain 1 for AP 104??.

What is the correct configuration to do it?.

Thank you

Hi Friend,

Here is the method to identify and connect Ant-18 to AP104,

AP 104 has 4 connectors which are used for external antennas and out of 4 connectors; 2 for each band/radio.



Antenna connector mapping:

R0/A0: Radio 0 (5 GHz), chain 0
R0/A1: Radio 0 (5 GHz), chain 1
R1/A0: Radio 1 (2.4 GHz), chain 0
R1/A1: Radio 1 (2.4 GHz), chain 1

Comming to Ant-18 connections,

Hope got clarity on this,
