    Because the reliability of such an installation is highly unpredictable, Verint Video Solutions does not recommend it. A path free of any obstacle is called an RF line-of-sight path. To establish an RF line-of-sight path, you must take into account the beam width of the radio signal transmitted between the two antennas.
