Antenna setup and planning for SpeechLine Digital Wireless
When planning the installation of SpeechLine Digital Wireless devices for each room,
observe the following guidelines.
▷ Mount all SpeechLine Digital Wireless receivers together in one rack.
▷ Make sure to have a direct line of sight between the transmitters and the receiving
antennas.
▷ Depending on the room characteristics there are several options how to install the
receiving antennas. We recommend the following options in this order:
◦ Option 1: remotely mounted using the AWM 2 for one receiver or the AWM 4
for two receivers. Option 1: Connecting the AWM 2 or AWM 4 antenna wall
mount directly to the receiver(s)
◦ Option 2: remotely mounted using the AWM 2 or AWM 4 and multiple
receivers combined using an antenna splitter (passive splitters SL PASC 2 or
SL PASC 4). Option 2: Combining multiple links to one AWM 2/AWM 4
◦ Option 3: mounted in a rack (front) Option 3: Rack mounting - front
◦ Option 4: mounted in a rack (rear). Option 4: Rack mounting - rear
▷ When mounting antennas remotely, observe the minimum distance to possibly
existing DECT access points and also take into account the cable lengths.
▷ Always switch all receivers on and off with a common power supply (e.g. a multi-
outlet power strip with a central on/off switch) in order to achieve the best
performance of a system.
