    HI to all, 

    can I install MIMO AP (AP204) just with one antenna  connected on a single RF connector?

     

    If yes, what is the impact on the performance.

     

    Thanks for your support and cooperation.

     

    Best Regards

    Mimo gets its performance from multiple antennas.  You would be risking significantly poor performance.

    You also must provision the AP for single-chain. The user guide has some details on that as well as which antenna connector must be used.
