Installation Direction
The directional antenna radiates the signal towards the front of the unit. The
unit should be installed in a position whereby the front of the unit faces the
direction you wish to send the signal to. Therefore the direction you wish to send
the signal has to be considered before going on to the next step of starting to set
up the access point.
Mount the Unit on a Pole
The device is designed to mount to a pole.
The following guidelines will help you choose the best location for your wireless
device:
• Try to place the device in an area where other engineers who may require
access to it, can get to it easily. Consider where the PoE Injector will be.
• Choose an elevated location where trees, buildings and large steel structures
will not obstruct the antenna signals and offers maximum line-of-sight to the
other device.
• Select the appropriate antenna for your environment. You can fine-tune
parameters such as the transmit power and rate aggressiveness to achieve
the best results.
