14.5 Getting Started
14.5.1 Placing a Repeater for
Best Performance
For optimal operation, follow these recommendations when physically
placing your device:
• To avoid electrical interference, do not place the repeater within 80 cm
(31 in.) of electrical outlets, wiring and network cabling.
• For best signal propagation, place the repeater in an open area at a
slightly elevated location (i.e., not directly on the ground), about 2
meters (6.5 ft.) high.
• Plug the AC adapter for your repeater into an Uninterruptable Power
Supply (UPS) for reliable operation.
14.5.2 Plugging in the Repeater Your repeater is a standalone device that requires mains power for operation.
To activate your repeater:
1. Screw the provided antenna onto the repeater without forcing.
2. Use the Velcro® tape provided with your product to place the repeater in
the best location, as described above.
3. Plug the AC adapter into the electrical power outlet or UPS.
CAUTION: We highly recommend that you use a UPS for your
repeater(s).
4. Insert the adapter’s DC plug into the Smart-Vue repeater.
5. At this point, the repeater’s two red LEDs light up for a few seconds,
and then one of them turns off.
