I'm about to install WBS510, for the meantime without having antenna.
Is it possible?

@Heujenthro, using any AP without antennas can destroy the radio.

Because the antenna terminates the line with a 50Ω impedance and the radio design expects this termination.

@R1D2 , How about adding this antenna?
18dBi Wireless WiFi Antenna w/ RPSMA Interface.
This antenna is temporary, and i will buy sector antenna in the future for long range coverage.

@Heujenthro, that's better than an open end. Remember to adjust Tx power of the WBS accordingly.
