سيٽ اپ ۽ تنصيب

1. حفاظتي احتياط

• Ensure proper grounding for outdoor installations to prevent electrical hazards.
• Avoid installing or servicing the antenna during lightning storms or adverse weather conditions.
• Consult local regulations and building codes for antenna placement, height restrictions, and safety guidelines.
• انسٽاليشن دوران هميشه مناسب ذاتي حفاظتي سامان (PPE) استعمال ڪريو.

2. Mounting the Base Station

The AM-5G19-120 is designed for pole or wall mounting and comes with integrated mounting hardware. Follow these general steps:

1. چڙهڻ جو هنڌ چونڊيو: Choose a location that provides clear line-of-sight to target areas and is structurally sound to support the antenna.
2. ماؤنٽنگ بریکٹ ڳنڍيو: Securely attach the provided mounting bracket to a sturdy pole (recommended diameter 1-2.5 inches) or a flat wall surface using appropriate fasteners (e.g., lag screws for wood, expansion bolts for concrete). Ensure the bracket is level.
3. اينٽيننا کي نصب ڪريو: Carefully attach the AM-5G19-120 antenna to the mounting bracket. Ensure it clicks or locks into place securely.
4. ترتيب ترتيب ڏيو: Loosely tighten the adjustment bolts to allow for initial alignment. The antenna can be adjusted for both vertical tilt and horizontal azimuth.

3. Connecting to Network Equipment

The AM-5G19-120 features two RP-SMA connectors for connecting to a compatible 5 GHz radio or access point (e.g., Ubiquiti Rocket M5, Rocket 5AC Lite).

1. Connect RF Cables: Attach two high-quality, low-loss RF cables (not included) from the antenna's connectors to the corresponding connectors on your radio. Ensure connections are finger-tight.
2. Weatherproof Connections: For outdoor installations, it is critical to weatherproof all RF cable connections using electrical tape, self-amalgamating tape, or weatherproof boots to prevent moisture ingress.
3. محفوظ ڪيبل: Route and secure the cables to prevent strain and damage, ensuring they do not interfere with antenna movement or become a tripping hazard.

آپريشن

1. پاورنگ آن

The AM-5G19-120 is a passive antenna and does not require external power. It functions by directing and receiving radio frequency signals. Power is supplied to the connected radio or access point, typically via Power over Ethernet (PoE) or a dedicated power adapter. Refer to your specific radio's user manual for power-on procedures.

2. ترتيب

Since the AM-5G19-120 is a passive antenna, it does not have its own configuration interface. All operational parameters, such as frequency, channel width, transmit power, and network mode (e.g., Access Point, Station), are configured on the connected Ubiquiti radio or access point. Ensure the radio is configured to operate within the 5 GHz frequency band and is compatible with the antenna's gain and beamwidth characteristics.

3. Signal Optimization and Alignment

Achieving optimal signal strength and link stability is crucial for performance. Use the signal monitoring tools available in your connected radio's software interface (e.g., Ubiquiti airOS) to fine-tune the antenna's alignment.

1. Initial Aiming: Roughly aim the antenna towards the desired coverage area or client devices.
2. فائن ٽيوننگ: While monitoring the signal strength (e.g., RSSI) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the radio's interface, make small, incremental adjustments to the antenna's vertical tilt and horizontal azimuth.
3. محفوظ پوزيشن: Once the optimal signal is achieved, carefully tighten all mounting bolts to secure the antenna's position, ensuring not to disturb the alignment.

The 120° beamwidth provides broad coverage, but precise aiming maximizes throughput and minimizes interference, especially for longer-distance links or in noisy RF environments.

سار سنڀال

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Ubiquiti AM-5G19-120 Base Station antenna.

• وقتي معائنو: Annually inspect the antenna, mounting hardware, and cables for any signs of wear, corrosion, physical damage, or loosening. Pay close attention to the integrity of the radome (outer casing).
• صفائي: Gently clean the antenna's surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt, dust, bird droppings, or other debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or high-pressure water, as these can damage the antenna's finish or internal components.
• ڪيبل سالميت: Check RF cables and connectors for any kinks, cuts, fraying, or signs of degradation. Ensure all connections remain tight and secure. Replace any damaged cables immediately to prevent signal loss or intermittent connectivity.
• موسم جي حفاظت: Verify that all cable connections, especially those exposed to the elements, are properly weatherproofed. Reapply or reinforce weatherproofing materials (e.g., self-amalgamating tape, silicone sealant) if they show signs of cracking, peeling, or deterioration.
• ترتيب جي چڪاس: After severe weather events (e.g., strong winds, ice storms), or if performance degrades, re-check the antenna's alignment to ensure it has not shifted.

Always disconnect power to the connected radio before performing any maintenance or inspection.
