Most installations receive the best coverage using the following guidelines:
Install APs toward the center of the building.

Place APs about 80 feet apart.

Do not install APs near metal objects, such as heating ducts, metal doors, or electric service panels.

If you install AP332i on a pole, keep in mind that coverage will be 180 degrees. Do not mount two

AP332is back to back on a pole to achieve 360 degree coverage, however, because the two units
could interfere with each other.
