For 802.11a/b/g, the connection can be cabled or open air. If open air, simply connect an antenna to the SMA adaptor on the WaveBlade. Note however that performance results will be impacted by open air testing. Also, test results will be difficult to reproduce. If cabling, start by connecting a 20db attenuator to the WaveBlade. Connect an RF cable to the attenuator. Connect the other end of the RF cable to the antenna port of the AP. If the AP has 2 antenna ports, disable or terminate the port which is not in use. If possible, disable diversity on the AP.
