antenna-id ap460e

Configures the antenna ID on an AP460e model access point profile and device. Use this command to specify the antenna-type used with the selected external antenna ports. Refer the following information prior to configuring the antenna-id.
Radio: Modes of Operation
AP460e is a tri-radio AP with eight, external antennas ports. The radios can operate as follows:
  • Radio1: 2x2, 2.4 GHz WLAN only
  • Radio2: 4x4, 5 GHz WLAN only
  • Radio3: 2x2, 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz sensor only
AP460e Antenna-ID Configuration
The AP460e eight antennas are grouped as follows:
  • Group 1
    • Antennas 1, 2, 3, 4 - Single-band (5 GHz) WLAN; Radio 2 only
    Note

    Note

    For radio 2, use the antenna-id command to specify the antenna type used in ports 1, 2, 3, and 4.
  • Group 2
    • Antennas 5 and 6 - Single-band (2.4 GHz) WLAN; Radio 1 only
    Note

    Note

    For radio 1, use the antenna-id command to specify the antenna type used in antenna ports 5 and 6.
  • Group 3
    • Antennas 7 and 8 - Dual-band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) sensor; Radio 3 only
    Note

    Note

    For radio 3, use the antenna-id command to specify the antenna type used in antenna ports 7 and 8.

Supported in the following platforms

Syntax

antenna-id external [group-1|group-2|group-3] <ANTENNA-TYPE>

Parameters

antenna-id external [group-1|group-2|group-3] <ANTENNA-TYPE>
antenna-id Selects the antenna group to use.
external States the antenna is external
group-1 Configures the antenna type used in the group-1 antenna ports (1, 2, 3, and 4).
Note: For AP460e, radio 2 and antennas 1, 2, 3, and 4 are 5 GHz band-locked. For radio 2, use the antenna-id command to specify the antenna type used in antenna ports 1, 2, 3, and 4.
group-2 Configures the antenna type used in the group-2 antenna ports (5 and 6).
Note: For AP460e, radio 1 and antennas 5 and 6 are 2.4 GHz band-locked. For radio 1, use the antenna-id command to specify the antenna type used in antenna ports 5 and 6.
group-3 Configures the antenna type used in the group-3 antenna ports (7 and 8).
Note: For AP460e, radio 3 and antennas 7 and 8 are dual-band, concurrent, sensor only. For radio 3, use the antenna-id command to specify the antenna type used in antenna ports 7 and 8.
antenna-type After selecting the antenna group, configure the antenna-type used:

The antenna types supported for group-1, group-2 and group-3 antenna ports are: ai-dq04360s, ml-2452-apa2-01, ml-2452-apa2-02, ml-2452-hpa5-036, ml-2452-hpag4a6-01, ml-2452-hpag5a8-01, ml-2452-pna5-01r, ml-2452-pta4m4-036, ml-2452-sec6m4-036, ws-ai-de07025, ws-ai-de10055, ws-ai-dq05120, and ws-ao-dq04360n.
