Component Description
Antennas
The access point includes two antennas for wireless communications. The signal transmitted from
both antennas is identical, but only the best signal received on one of the antennas is used. The
antennas transmit the outgoing signal along a horizontal plane perpendicular to the antenna (in
the shape of a toroidal sphere, or a donut). The antennas should be adjusted to different angles to
provide better coverage.
LED Indicators
The access point includes four status LED indicators, as shown in Figure
