Connected Grid Module Antennas
In addition to the two fixed antennas (GPS and WiFi), the router supports additional antennas that provide connectivity
to the Connected Grid modules installed in the router.
The router supports up to two Cisco Connected Grid modules. Each module requires one antenna or two antennas (one
main antenna and one diversity antenna). The total number of antennas installed with the router depends on:
Number of modules installed in the router.
Module types that are installed in the router

Installing or Replacing Module Antennas
Depending on the configuration you specified, the router could arrive in the shipping container with all required antennas
already installed and connected to the corresponding Cisco Connected Grid modules, also installed in the router.
However, you might need to install an antenna when:
You purchase a module separately from the router. The antenna is included with the module, and must be installed
on the router to complete the module installation.
You purchase an antenna separately to replace a faulty or damaged antenna.
The antenna form factor prevents requires that it be installed after the router has shipped.
Where to Find Antenna Installation Information
