antenna into your 3Com Access Point.
Kit Contents
The upgrade kit contains these items:
•
one antenna module
•
one 802.11g mini-PCI Radio Module
•
two cables

Remove the back cover.
Using a cross-tip screwdriver, remove the four screws from the back cover. Remove the cover from the unit. Set
the cover and screws aside.

Remove the antenna housing.
Grasp the inside edge of the antenna housing and pull up to disengage the housing from the
unit, as shown below. This part is no longer needed.
Install the radio board.
Holding the radio board at an angle, align the contact edge with the mini PCI connector on the unit. Make sure
the keying notch on the contact edge lines up with the key on the connector, as shown in the detail below. Slide
the board into the connector and press down gently until the two retainer clips snap into place.
WL-463 guide.fm Page 4 Tuesday, November 18, 2003 3:48 PM
Attach the cables to the antenna module.
With the notched side of the square connector facing up (button side facing down), insert one cable connector
into the B1 connection on the antenna module and push gently until it snaps into place. Attach the other cable
connector to the B2 connection in the same manner.
Attach the antenna module and connect the cables.
Align the antenna module with the snaps and posts on the unit and press until the module
snaps firmly into place. Make sure the cables are routed through the slots in the unit.
Align the free end of one cable with one connector on the board. Press until the cable snaps
into place. Repeat with the other cable and the other connector. (You can connect either cable
to either connector; the order is not important.)
After the cables are connected, press them down out of the way inside the housing.
WL-463 guide.fm Page 5 Tuesday, November 18, 2003 3:48 PM
Replace the back cover.
Make sure that the cables are tucked away inside the housing so that they do not obstruct the cover. Align the
back cover with the unit and settle the cover into place. Tighten the four screws.
Attach the antennas.
Being careful not to touch the antenna tips, screw the antennas onto the SMA connectors and hand tighten
them. After network startup, you may need to adjust the antennas to fine tune radio coverage.
Reinstall the access point.
Reconnect the Ethernet cable and reattach the access point to the wall mounting plate. Adjust the antennas to
improve the radio signal, if necessary.
