I think there is a difference in the hole pattern between the snap adapter and the radio.

How do you mount the radio to the Adapter plate. There needs to be a mateing adapter on your plate side... That piece only comes with the UBNT Dish... (you can pull up the UBNT 10ghz Dish Userguide to see that ...) Jiruos adapters that we used, required that piece to be removed from the AF11x so that it could be screwed in directly (as per my picture). I was told that they were going to redesign so that they would have a mateing bracket on their side so that the AF11x would slide in. (You will also need to have to include cables to connect to AF11x to the Feed horn .. I am sure you already knew that).

Without that extra spacing the radio would crash into the end of the adapter.

If I'm remembering right, with the Jirous adapters, you take the snap adapter off and just bolt the radio directly to their mounting plate using the same holes... wouldn't that line up with your adapter too?

I designed the spacing and everything assuming that adapter would be used with each unit.

I made the hole pattern to match a plastic slide and snap adapter that came with the radio I have. That should be fine But not sure if that part is included with all AF11X radios. Gino is asking about how the radio is supposed to mount to my adapter. If the slide/snap is not automatically included in all shipments, I need to alter the bolt pattern to allow mounting of the radio when that part is not present. He needs some more of these adapters and I want to make sure to send him stuff that does not require any work on his part. Do you AF11X users know if that slid/snap adapter plate is included with all radios? Yes that slide/snap adapter is included with each of the AF11x (That is how they slide/attach to the UBNT dishes). If so, can we buy more for Gino to use right now in the event he has lost his? If not how should I alter the mount so the radio can still fit onto the adapter?
