It is the customer's responsibility to follow local country regulations, including operation within legal frequency channels, output power, cabling requirements, and Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) requirements. All Mikrotik radio antennas must be professionally installed.

The mANT is a dual-polarization antenna with two RP-SMA connectors, it comes in two sizes, the 15dBi model and the 19dBi model. Both antennas have a 120-degree beamwidth

First use

1. Unscrew the lid screw by hand;
2. Open the cover;
3. Connect cables to the RP-SMA connectors of the antenna;
4. Make sure the device is powered off and connect cables to the device;
5. Mount and secure assembly.

1. Please avoid connecting a loose Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port, secure the cable to a wall or the pole, so that the cable weight is not pulling the port. It is recommended to secure the Ethernet cable less than 2m from the antenna. This is to ensure that the cable doesn't damage the port by its weight, or doesn't fall out.

We recommend using Cat6 shielded cables.

Grounding

The installation infrastructure (towers and masts), as well as the router itself, must be properly grounded. The antenna includes a grounding wire attachment screw behind the case door. Attach your grounding wire to the grounding screw, then attach the other end of the grounding wire to the grounded mast. This is to substantially reduce the risk of ESD and lightning damage.
