Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Outdoor Wireless Bridge 9-dBi Omnidirectional Antenna
78-15545-01
Installation Notes
Choosing a Mounting Location
The antenna is designed to create an omnidirectional broadcast pattern, which receives radio signals 
from client sites within its range. To achieve this pattern, mount the antenna clear of any obstructions 
between it and the client antennas. To avoid the changing of its radiation pattern or an impedance 
mismatch, mount the antenna at the top of a mast whenever possible with no part of the mast extending 
more than 1 to 2 in. (2.5 to 5.0 cm) past the top-most antenna U-bolt clamp. If a side-mount is necessary, 
mount antenna no closer than 1 ft. (30.4 cm) away from the nearest metallic vertical member.
Tools and Equipment Required
To install the antenna, you need the following tools and equipment:
One aluminum bracket with 5/16-18 set screw
One 1/4-20 x 2.5 in. pipe U-bolt with flat washers, spring lock washers, and nuts
7/16-in. (11-mm) wrench
5/32-in. (4-mm) hex head wrench
Torque-limiting pliers (Milbar Model 45Z or equivalent)
A Small level
Coaxial connector sealing compound (not provided)
The following sections contain procedures for installing the antenna. Choose the procedure that applies 
to your situation. Use 
 as a guide.
Mounting the Antenna
A mounting bracket is provided with the antenna. This bracket enables you to mount the antenna to masts 
up to 2.5 in. (6.3 cm) in diameter.
The antenna is vertically polarized; therefore, it is very important to mount the antenna in a vertical (not 
leaning) position for optimal performance.
Note
The distance from the antenna to the bridge should be within reach of the antenna’s 4.9-ft (1.5-m) 
preconnected coaxial cable. For optimum system performance, do not replace the preconnected antenna 
cable with a longer one.
Note
To ensure correct installation and grounding, install the antenna in compliance with your local and 
national electrical codes: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70, National Electrical Code 
(U.S.); Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA22.1 (Canada); and if local or national electrical codes are 
not available, refer to IEC 364, Part 1 through Part 7 (other countries).
