[azavaleta85]

I'm going to install a Cisco Aironet 1310 with AIR-ANT2506 external antennas, someone will have the best practices for the installation of these antennas, considering that they will be installed on metal beams.

Do I Need to install two antennas or just one, which is the recommendation and why?

Gee whiz!  This is too far UP.  3 metres is the recommended height.

Are you going to do a mesh or bridge is is this just going to be a plain wireless access point and connected via an ethernet cable?

What it means is... is it going to be working as AP or as bridge?

WOuld it be point to point ot point to multipoint?

double antenna is for diversity.
