Cisco Wireless :: 3502e APs - How To Mount Antenna

Mar 22, 2013

I am still new to wireless. I have been studing for my CCNA Wireless for about 6 months now so I still have a lot of questions.

Right now I have to deploy some new APs. We are using 3502e APs. I have a qustion on how to mount antennas for these access points. I have to make a mounting bracket the new installations. What was done with the previous APs was to mount a unistrut beam to an I beam in the building. There is 2 AIR-ANT-1728's and 2 AIR-ANT-5160V-R antennas mounted straight out on the unistrut. Then they put a T bracket on the unistrut and mounted a second bar 90 degrees from the main bar and connected the third 1728 and 5160 antennas on the second mounting bracket. So we have 4 antennas in a row, and two off to the side 90 degrees from the other 4 antennas.
 
My question, is this OK to have them this way, or would it be better to have all 6 antennas in a straight line when I fabricate my new AP brackets?
 
Here is a picture of what I am talking about. This would be looking at it from above.

Cisco Wireless :: 3502e Antenna Connection?

Sep 5, 2012

The 3502e has 3 antenna terminals for each band. Is the order of connection to the antenna pigtails significant? The antenna pigtails are not marked ABC (just blue boots for 5GHz.)

Cisco Wireless :: 3502e Directional Antenna Connection

Sep 5, 2012

The 3502e has 6 antenna connections, 3 for each band, 5GHz band is marked in blue. The antenna pigtails are only marked with the matching color - 3 blues or 3 blacks. No A,B or C. Does it matter which pigtail goes to which of the 3 terminals so long as the band is correct?

Cisco Wireless :: 3502e Mobile Access Point Using Mesh

Nov 1, 2012

What's the best design and configuration to deploy some fixed access points (wired) and others on a mobile truck (no wired)?I was thinking about configure the Wireless network using Mesh, but could not find much information about the convergence time when MAP (access point on the mobile truck) finds a better RAP signal, not sure if the clients would keep the conection up when the MAP converge.The customer have 11 3502e access points and 1 2504 WLC.Found out that 3502e does not support autonomous mode, so can not use autonomous bridge mode that has some mobile station configuration available.

Cisco Wireless :: Controller Auto Sensing Power And Channel 1242 APs To 3502E

Feb 20, 2013

A few months ago we upgraded our warehouse from 1242 APs to 3502E APs. We changed 16 units, all in the same building. When we came in the next day we found out that they were all on channel 1 at their lowest power level. The WLC was set for auto negotiate for power and channel but for some reason it did not work. We had successfully changed they rest of the factory with the auto feature enabled but for some reason, the warehouse did not work properly. All APs have the same IOS and are they same model. We have WiSMs mounted in a 6509 chassis as our WLC.

Cisco Wireless :: 1142 AP Antenna Configuration?

Aug 13, 2012

When we take a look at the internal antennas on the 1142 AP, we notice the 5ghz pointed all the same way, but for the 2.4ghz we can see each offset by 45/120 degrees. It was my understanding that all antennas are omnidirectionals on the 1142, why are those 2.4ghz antennas not all pointed the same way? onfiguration advantage and that each antenna is indeed omnicadirectional? Example, if I shut just one antenna off, do I lose a sector (120degree)?

Cisco Wireless :: How To Get 3500e Antenna Selection

Jan 24, 2012

i want to install a 3500e. I have a hole in my wireless network where this AP will be a perfect fit. I do have a wireless controller running code 6.x, so I think I will need to upgrade to 7 which is not a big deal.
 
The problem I have is the antenna selection. Since the AP has MIMO multiple-inputs multiple-inputs I’m perplexed on the type of antenna to choose. Since the environment is a warehouse the Omni directional would be preferred - should I also add the dipole antenna for close proximity to the AP. Also, I noticed in the getting started guide the 3500e has 6 external connection points 3 for 2.4 and 3 for 5 GHz. The antenna documentation says to use dual-band antennas, but this contradicts what is shown in the getting started guide. So what antennas should I get to make the 3500e work in a warehouse environment.
