Connecting an AP-104 to an ANT-18

  • 1.  Connecting an AP-104 to an ANT-18

    Posted May 16, 2013 04:05 PM

    I recently purchased 2x AP-104s and 2x ANT-18s:

     

    I found this documentation on the site for connecting an ANT-18 to an AP-92 REF: https://arubanetworkskb.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/HowTo/How-to-connect-AP-92-to-ANT-17-or-ANT-18 – however, the AP-104s have 4x ports – which ports do I use to connect the ANT-18?

     

    I understand that the center connection on the ANT-18 is not used - which ports on the AP-104 should the left and right ANT-18 connections be plugged into, respectively?   

     

    Ports: R1/A1 and R0/A1 or

    Ports: R0/A0 and R1/A0 or

    Ports: R1/A0 and R1/A1 or

    Ports: R0/A0 and R0\A1

     

    My understanding is that the:

     

    R0/A0 and R0/A1 are the A Radios

    R1/A0 and R1/A1 are the B/G Radios

     

    Is this correct?

     

    Any assistance would be very helpful

    On the AP-104:

    R0/A0 is 5GHz

    R0/A1 is 5GHz

    R1/A0 is 2.4GHz

    R1/A1 is 2.4GHz

     

    When using the ANT-18, you only connect two of the connections.    I am not sure if it matters, but I would use R0/A0 and R1/A0.

    Thank you for the feedback. I'll get these installed using your recommendation.

    But do you need 2 ANT-18's to enable both 2.5 and 5ghz at the same time?
