  • Patent number: 9853346
    Abstract: An antenna mount includes first and second tower mounting brackets. A first frame has first and second portions attached to the first and second tower mounting brackets, respectively. A second frame has third and fourth portions attached to the first and second tower mounting brackets, respectively. First and second equipment brackets are attached to the first frame, and third and fourth equipment brackets are attached to the second frame. Optionally, the first and second frames may each be formed as a one-piece continuous bent tube. Optionally, the first portion and the third portion are located side-by-side and clamped to the first tower bracket by a same first clamp, and the second portion and the fourth portion are located side-by-side and clamped to the second tower bracket by a same second clamp.
