Cisco Cisco Aironet 1400 Wireless Bridge Guía De Instalación

Slowly tilt the bridge up and down, and watch for peaks in signal strength. Use the full vertical 
adjustment range of the mounting brackets.

Return the bridge to the position where the signal level is strongest.

Secure the vertical adjustment by tightening the four bolts that secure the housing bracket to the support 
bracket. Torque bolts to 14 to 16 ft. lb.

Remove the cable from the RSSI port and replace the cover.

You can double the throughput, or create a standby link, by stacking two bridges. A stacked installation 
consists of two bridge systems installed at the same physical location. For detailed mounting instructions 
refer to the Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Mounting Instructions that shipped with your 
bridge.

Operations summary:

Adjacent bridges should be located at least 8 feet apart.

Radios of adjacent bridges should be configured for operation on non-adjacent channels.

You can mount the second bridge system in the same general location as the first as long as you separate 
the antennas by at least 8 feet. For example, in a flat-roof installation you can separate the bridges 
horizontally, roughly perpendicular to the line of signal propagation. In a tower installation, you can 
separate the antennas vertically. During the activation process, you verify that the interference between 
systems is acceptably low. Do not attempt to stack more than two bridges.
