Antenna Cable Connections

Connecting antenna cables to the router using specific designations like CELL 1 to MAIN0 and CELL 2 to AUX0/DIV.

Signal Strength Check

Verify the quality of wireless signal from the antennas using a cell phone and ensure signal strength is stronger than -75dB.

Antenna Separation

Maintain a 20cm distance from antenna when operating, as per FCC RF exposure regulations.

Safe Operating Distance

Ensure that no one is within 24 inches of the antenna while it's operating to prevent injuries.

Study Notes

Nomad Wings Auto Antenna Overview

  • 2X2 MIMO cellular antenna
  • Supports 2X2 MIMO Wi-Fi, optional GPS
  • Operates across 5G frequencies (600 MHz - 6 GHz)
  • Ideal for mobile solutions (events, camping)
  • IP67-rated for harsh environments
  • Offers magnetic, adhesive, or screw mounting options for flexibility

Mounting Options

  • Magnetic Mount:

    • Requires a ferrous metallic surface
    • Ensure strong magnetic attraction for secure placement
  • Adhesive Mount:

    • Clean the surface before applying
    • Firmly press after removing the protective backing
  • Screw Mount:

    • Drill two 0.25" diameter holes
    • Use provided wall anchors and screws

Antenna Placement Considerations

  • Ground Plane: Require a metallic surface (at least 20” x 20” or 5 inches from all sides of antenna) for optimal performance.
  • Interference: Maintain at least 24 inches distance from electrical devices (lights, routers, other antennas) to avoid signal interference.
  • Signal Loss: Avoid installation near thick materials (concrete, metal) to prevent significant signal loss.

Installation Instructions

  • Magnetic Mount: Position on a flat metallic surface with strong attraction.
  • Adhesive Mount: Clean the surface, remove backing and press.
  • Screw Mount: Drill holes at the chosen location using anchors and screws.

Cable Routing & Connection

  • Carefully route cables, avoiding sharp bends and securing approximately 6 inches from the antenna.
  • Connect cables to router using the correct connections:
    • CELL 1 to MAIN0
    • CELL 2 to AUX0 / DIV
    • Wi-Fi 1 to 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi 1
    • Wi-Fi 2 to 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi 2
    • GPS to GNSS

Commissioning & Testing

  • Ensure all connections are secure.
  • Verify signal strength (RSSI > -75dB) on a cellular device.
  • Confirm cellular connection supports required data rates.

Safety Warnings

  • Maintain a 20cm separation distance from the antenna (FCC RF exposure requirements)
  • Do not operate antenna around individuals within 24 inches.
  • Avoid installation on windy days or near power lines.

Required Tools

  • Phillips Screwdriver
  • 3/16” Drill Bit (for screw mounting)
