User Manual –Wireless Video Bridge Gen 2
Version 1.0.0 12/16/2016 Page 16
The WVB2 and the Wireless Client (C41W, C61W) should be placed no further than 80
feet apart and have no more than 5 internal walls between them. It is important to
recognize this is guidance and home construction will significantly decrease range.
Walls and other barriers can decrease the range and significantly impact the maximum
distances. Use signal strength to determine installation quality.
Below are examples of various barriers and how they degrade the signal and lower the
maximum distance from the WVB2.
Standard Medium Strong Extreme
• Plexiglas
• Sheet plywood
• Internal wall (2
layers drywall +
2”x4” studs)
