NOTICE
external antenna must be professional installed.
Step 1: Select optimal locations for the outdoor CPE unit, with a clear line-of-sight to the sector base station unit.
Consider the following criteria to ensure maximum performance and stability of your wireless connection:
§
Best signal path possible, ideally the highest spot pointing towards the sector Base Station. It is always
recommended to have a professional site survey done prior to installation to confirm adequate signal strength
§
Fresnel zone clearance
§
Less than 320 feet of total Power-Over-Ethernet UTP cable, the shorter the better
§
Optimal transmission range (visit the online range calculator at http://www.rapidwaveinc.com)
Step 2: Attach the outdoor units mounting brackets.
