the Cisco Aironet AIR-ANT2568VG-N and the Cisco Aironet AIR-ANT2568VG-N dual-band omni-directional antennas and provides specifications and mounting instructions. The antennas are designed for outdoor use with Cisco Outdoor Access Points with radios operating in the 2.4–GHz and 5–GHz frequency bands.
The Cisco AIR-ANT2568VG-NS is a self-identifying antenna having circuitry that enables Cisco access points (APs) to self-identify the antenna. This antenna has an in-built EEPROM that the APs read and automatically configure the antenna type and the gain in the wireless controller.
