Antenna Compatibility

The airFiber AF-11G35 antenna is designed for use with the airFiber radio model AF-11*.

* Check your local/regional regulations for the allowable antenna gain allowed for your application.

12 mm, 15 mm, and 17 mm wrench (pre-assembly and pole-mounting tool)
airFiber AF-11 radio (sold separately) with duplexer(s) installed
Clear line of sight between airFiber radios
Vertical mounting orientation
Mounting point:
- At least 1 m below the highest point on the structure
- For tower installations, at least 3 m below the top of the tower
Ground wires – min. 10 AWG (5 mm2) and max. length: 1 m. As a safety precaution, ground the airFiber radios to grounded masts, poles, towers, or grounding bars.
WARNING: Failure to properly ground your airFiber radio will void your warranty.
(Recommended) 2 Outdoor Gigabit PoE surge protectors
Note: For guidelines about grounding and
lightning protection, follow your local electrical regulatory codes.
(Optional) If not using PoE: DC power source and 12/30 AWG power cable.
Outdoor, shielded Category 6 (or above) cabling and shielded RJ-45 connectors are required for all wired Ethernet connections.

	Note: For guidelines about grounding and lightning protection, follow your local electrical regulatory codes.

OMT (OrthoMode Transducer)
The OMT has two ports used to attach the RF cable(s) from the radio. The OMT is also used to change the polarization from H/V to ± 45º.
Metal Cap
For SISO mode, this cap must be installed on the unused OMT port.

The OMT (OrthoMode Transducer) is located on the back of the antenna. The default polarization is H and V.

	Note: If you only need to use one port, keep the other one covered with the included Metal Cap.

To use ±45° slant polarization:

	Note: ±45° slant polarization is not permitted in all regulatory regions. Please consult local regulations.

	Note: For SISO mode, use the RF connector (H or V) as determined by your licensing. Keep the other RF connector covered with the included Metal Cap.

Connect the RF Cable(s) (one in SISO mode, two in MIMO mode) to the radio as shown below.

	Note: Hand-tighten the nuts.

Secure the free end of the ground wire to a grounded mast, pole, tower, or grounding bar.

	WARNING: Failure to properly ground your airFiber radio will void your warranty.

	Note: The ground wire should be as short as possible and no longer than one meter in length.
