"Aux" connector on airport card?
The airport card for the A1176 has two connecting posts for antenna cables. These are visible in the photos for steps 17 and 18 of the AirPort Extreme guide (especially in the zoomed image).
The one on the left is labelel "main" and is, presumably, where one attaches the cable to the airport antenna.
What is the "aux" post for? One site I stumbled on suggested it was for an auxiliary antenna that would be used when the primary can't find a strong enough signal. But the A1176 doesn't come with an auxiliary airport antenna (does it?).
When I purchased my used A1176 the airport antenna and cable were missing; now that I've bought a replacement I also have a spare bluetooth antenna and cable. Would it hurt or help to use my spare as an auxiliary, perhaps taping it where the latest Minis seem to have yet another antenna?
Cette question est-elle utile ?
