    5. INSTALLATION: Notes on radio wave path 5-1 Radio wave attenuation by wall, metallic net, etc. Radio wave is heavily attenuated by wall, metallic net, etc. If heavy attenuation is anticipated, checking by measuring instrument is required. 5-2 Interference from ISM devices IEEE802.11b/g-compatible wireless LAN device like this unit uses 2.4 GHz ISM (Industry Science Medical) band.
  • Page 20 Depending on obstacles, communication area becomes extremely small. A typical example is shown below. In this example obstacles are as high as the ceiling. In this case, radio wave can hardly reach the terminal.

  • Page 21: Installing Multiple Access Points

    5-4 Installing multiple access points When installing several access points to cover larger area, decide their mounting locations, considering the following points into consideration: Channel Setting - Generally “One common channel for one area” rule is recommendable. Set all the access points in your intended to a common channel. If an area covers several floors, use a single channel commonly among all the access points.

    6. INSTALLATION: Cabling & Mounting 6-1 Notes on Cabling Cable Routing & Clamping - Take care not to deform the profile of the cable by clamping it too tightly or by bending it too sharply. - Do not slack the cable. In the passage, it is a good practice to clamp the cable with shorter interval or pass it through a pipe to prevent the cable from being caught by some object.
