Quick Specs
Table 1
Figure 1 shows the face of AIR-AP2802E Model.
Notes:
Figure 2 shows the Smart Antenna Connector and DART cable on the AIR-AP2802E model.
The 2802E model has a Smart antenna connector, which is connected directly to the flexible radio. Without a supported external antenna connected to the Smart Antenna connector, the flexible radio can stay only in 2.4 GHz mode. If an external antenna is connected, the flexible radio can be used in the full Flexible Radio Assignment mode, allowing dual 5 GHz and Wireless Security Monitoring modes.
To connect to any supported RP-TNC connector-type external antenna to the Smart antenna connector, use the DART cable connector AIR-CAB002-DART-R=, which is to be ordered separately.
