Hi,

If you are after a custom antenna for a PTP link or an SM then you can add it in LINKPlanner (see http://linkplanner.cambiumnetworks.com/doc/available_antennas.html). Custom AP antennas are not supported and although we would like to support them, this isn't something that we are working on at the moment. 

In order to provide accurate results we need accurate 3D antenna patterns. See

If we are able to obtain accurate measured data (preferably in a spreadsheet or CSV file) then we may be able to include the antenna in a future release.

Thanks,

Andy
