The wireless bridge includes its own bracket kit for mounting the
unit to a 1.5 to 2 inch diameter steel pole or tube. The
pole-mounting bracket allows the unit to be mounted to part of a
radio mast or tower structure. The unit also has a wall-mounting
bracket kit that enables it to be fixed to a building wall or roof
when using external antennas.
