It is possible.  The Antenna array was designed for vertical propagation.  Having it Horizontal may result in a reduced signal to the client devices connecting to it.

@Eze3000 Thanks for your answer. I am testing it now.. and apparently is working well.. and the other DECOs connected to the main have good signal so far. Anyway, the distance that I am covering with the decos is no big so should not be problems, but if is were bigger, probably the antennas will not work properly as you mentioned. 

 

thanks again
