MR76 & external antenna's

Hello,

 

I have a customer who has today old Cisco AP's but with ANT2544V4M-R (installed in a fridge) - I plan to use the MR76 but can I use this antenna on my MR76 ? there is no equivalent on the MR76 datasheet only patch and sector antenna's 

 

Any idea ?

 

Thank you

 

jean

Hi thank you for you replay - I see it but only patch and sector antenna's but no dual-band omni with long coax cable to leave the AP outside of the fridge -

Something to think about - have you considered going to an all-in-one AP like the MR78?  Being so much newer than the old APs - it is likely to provide a lot more coverage.

 

Having no external bits and being IP67 rated will make it almost bullet proof in a fridge.  It will make washing it down much easier as well (assuming they need to do this for feed hygene reasons).
