The extended range antenna cable greatly improves signal strength and quality. It
increases the operating range of the PC, and enhances connectivity and throughput.

1. Place the foam tape bracket
retainer on the back of the
laptop screen. Make sure that
the open edge is facing
upwards.

2. Insert the connector end
of the cable into the

connector should snap into
place.

3. Slide the antenna
bracket into the foam tape
bracket retainer.

4. Mount the antenna into
the antenna bracket. Make
sure the antenna is
pointing up.

5. Connect the other end
of the cable into the
