Description
Multiband ceiling-mounted omnidirectional antenna.
For more information, see
In-Building Omnidirectional Ceiling-Mount Antenna
(3G-ANTM1916-CM).
This is the default antenna. Multiband dipole antenna.
For more information, see
Swivel-Mount Dipole Antenna
This antenna extension is a base with a 15-foot cable
included for use with a dipole omnidirectional
antenna.
For more information, see
Stand for Multiband TNC Male-Terminated Portable
Antenna (Cisco
3G-AE015-R).
This is the default antenna extension. This antenna
extension is a base with a 10-foot cable included for
use with dipole omnidirectional antennas.
For more information, see
Stand for Multiband TNC Male-Terminated Portable
Antenna (Cisco
3G-AE015-R). This document applies
to both 3G-AE015-R and 3G-AE010-R. The only
difference between these two products is the length of
the cable.
This is an outdoor low profile omnidirectional mast
antenna.
For more information, see
Outdoor Antenna
(3G-ANTM-OUT-OM).
This is an omnidirectional stick antenna.
