Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request
First Published: February 2013
The purpose of this document is to provide information on routing and securing the cable for the GPS assembly which is available as a factory-installed configuration on the Cisco 1552C/CU/E/EU/I access points.
The GPS module is shipped already assembled, tethered, and mounted in the predominant as-used orientation for each product configuration. Depending on the mounting configuration used for the access point, the GPS antenna may need to be repositioned, and the GPS cable must be routed and secured.
The following illustrations show how to reposition the GPS antenna and, if necessary; route the GPS cable.
The 1550 Series of access points supports use of the GPS option in the following configurations:
To mount the 1552C/155CU access point with the GPS option using the pole mount kit (PMK), route the GPS cable as shown in Figure 1, and anchor the cable to the bracket hardware using cable ties where necessary to secure excess cable length.

To mount the 1552C or 1552CU access point with the GPS option using the strand mount kit (SMK), route the GPS cable as shown in Figure 2, and anchor the cable to the bracket hardware with cable ties where necessary to secure excess cable length.

The 1552CU access point with the GPS option is shipped with the GPS antenna and bracket in a position that is appropriate to mount the unit horizontally on a strand as shown in Figure 2.
To mount the 1552CU unit using the pole mount kit (PMK) in a vertical orientation, the GPS antenna and bracket must be repositioned as shown in Figure 3. After repositioning, torque the bolts to 6–7 ft-lbs.
After repositioning the GPS antenna and bracket, complete the configuration of the 1552CU access point by routing the GPS cable as shown in Figure 3 and anchoring the cable to the bracket hardware with cable ties where necessary to secure excess cable length.

To mount the 1552E or 1552EU access point with the GPS option using the pole mount kit (PMK), route the GPS cable as shown in Figure 4 and anchor the cable to the bracket hardware with cable ties where necessary to secure excess cable length.

To mount the 1552I access point with the GPS option using the pole mount kit (PMK), route the GPS cable as shown in Figure 5 and anchor the cable to the bracket hardware with cable ties where necessary to secure excess cable length.

The 1552C access point with the GPS option is shipped with the GPS antenna and bracket in the position shown in Figure 1. The 1552I access point with the GPS option is shipped with the GPS antenna and bracket in the position shown in Figure 5.
To mount the 1552C or 1552I unit in a vault using the PMK, the GPS antenna and bracket must be repositioned as shown in Figure 6. After repositioning, torque the bolts to 6–7 ft-lbs.
After repositioning the GPS antenna and bracket, complete the configuration of the 1552C or 1552I access point by routing the GPS cable as shown in Figure 6 and anchoring the cable to the bracket hardware with cable ties where necessary to secure excess cable length.
