  • Page 9: Installation Overview

    Basic Installation 2.3 Installation Overview Standard installation involves the following steps: 1. Verify that all components of the packing list, described in Section 2.1, are intact and verify availability of the required items listed in Section 2.2. 2. Install the unit and antenna in optimal locations as described in Sections 2.4 and 2.5 and in the instructions supplied with the antenna.
  • Page 10 In applications where no multipath propagation is expected, a single antenna is sufficient to ensure good performance levels. However, in cases where multipath propagation exists, BreezeCOM recommends that two antennas be used. This takes advantage of space diversity capabilities. By using two antennas per unit, the system can select the best antenna on a per-packet basis (every several milliseconds).
