Introduction
Introduction
The Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge provides high-speed data links between buildings.
Operating in the unlicensed UNII-3 band (5725 to 5825 MHz), the bridge provides 802.11a standard data
rates of 6 to 54 Mbps. You can stack two bridges in point-to-point configurations to increase data
throughput or to provide cold standby redundancy.

The Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge is available with or without an integrated antenna. When
using a bridge with an integrated antenna, you must choose a mounting location with a clear path to the
remote antenna and orient the bridge so that the antenna is positioned for maximum signal strength. The
mounting brackets in the installation kit have adjustment slots that facilitate the positioning process.
When using a bridge without an integrated antenna, mount the bridge in a convenient location near the
external antenna. Each external antenna has its own mounting instructions.
