Abstract: Mounting systems and methods to secure a radio antenna are provided. A mechanical interlock assembly may include a head section and an insert section. The head section may include a laterally extending portion and a housing adjacent to the laterally extending portion. The head section may be adapted to couple with a pivotable coupling via the laterally extending portion, where the pivotable coupling is adapted to pivotably couple with an antenna assembly. The insert section may be adapted to couple with a pole coupling of a support member of a tower structure. The insert section may be adapted to fit into the housing of the head section, where the housing is adapted to receive the insert section. The insert section may fit into the housing of the head section to mechanically interlock the head section with the insert section to allow suspension of the antenna assembly from the support pole.

Abstract: A universal mounting apparatus suitable for use with a cellular communication system is disclosed here. The mounting apparatus can be used to mount a transceiver radio unit to an antenna structure. The mounting apparatus includes a first mounting plate compatible with the antenna structure, a second mounting plate couplable to the first mounting plate and slidably adjustable relative to the first mounting plate. Openings in the second mounting plate are arranged in a pattern compatible with different possible mounting fastener locations for transceiver radio units. At least one adjustment fastener couples the mounting plates together. When the at least one adjustment fastener is loosened, position of the second mounting plate is adjustable relative to the first mounting plate. When the at least one adjustment fastener is tightened, position of the second mounting plate is locked relative to the first mounting plate.
