Which SMA port to use for antenna.

RouterOS Wireless Networking

Hello, I’m sorry I posted a like post under general.

I have a basebox2 that I’m using as an AP.

I don’t know if I should be using SMA port 1 or SMA port 2 or both. I have a 15dbi omni and a 7dbi omni. I hear wireless n supports two antennas so in this case I want to use the 7dbi for sending and the 15dbi for receiving since embedded devices push a lot less wattage in the air than the basebox2.

Please let me know which SMA port to use.

Thanks,

Noah McNallie

if you are planning to use 2 antennas and you do not want to use both of them for transmit and receive then you can connect the receive antenna to chain0 CH0 and transmit antenna to chain1 CH1. And in the HT menu you can apply the configuration changes.
