Get ready to manufacture your own mounting hardware. It comes with NONE and no instructions on 'how to" anything. I realize that anyone can make a bracket or mount, but what do you mount it to on the antenna? What is the affect on the antenna? Will it be ok to drill through the plastic? Where is the best place to attach to the antenna? Is the all-thread at the local hardware going to last long up my tower? How about those nuts and washers?
SuperPass has some great patents, but he has shot himself in the foot due to not providing the hardware with the antenna's like every other manufacturer in the world! I have some here that have been in the field as long as I have been an ISP - about 6 years and they are still kicking, but I have some in the shop that have never been in the field due to no mounting hardware and then I have some I had to take down due to the glue that holds the actual front of the antenna cover on - came completely loose in a year. I made one order (due to a supplier's assurance that I used at the time) of SuperPass antennas (my first ever wireless order) and have3 never revisited that night mare. Do yourself a favor and stay with PacWireless or equally professional antennas. The mounting hardware and quality of the Pacwireless has proven itself through the 6 years we have been here doing this. I have never had to replace a PacWireless antenna due to anything short of lightning - - and we have hundreds of PacWireless Antennas. You can't beat their hardware either!!! One thing always comes to mind every time we get ready to place an order: "The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory." (Wow is that a true statement or what?)
