Installing Antennas
The base station is equipped with an internal omni-directional GPS antenna. It also supports an external Radio
Frequency (RF) antennas and omni-directional or directional Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas.
When selecting the ideal location for an antenna, consider the following recommendations:
• Mount the antenna at the highest possible point to improve reception.
• Select an area where there are few obstacles between the antenna and the planned coverage area or zone. A
minimum of 55% of the sky must be visible to the antenna.
• Make sure the antenna is installed at a distance from other antennas or devices that may cause interference.
• Make sure the antenna is accessible for maintenance.
