Choosing a Location

The Wavion WBS-2400 is a radio device and susceptible to interference that can reduce
throughput and range. To ensure the best performance follow these guidelines:
• Direct line-of-sight operation is preferred.
• It is recommend not to install the WBS-2400 near devices operating in the 2.4 GHz
frequency range.
• The WBS-2400 should be installed at the highest point of a metal pole such that there will be
no interference caused by RF reflections. If this is not possible, the WBS-2400 should be
installed at least 3 meters from the metal pole.
• It is always best to have the maximum distance possible from an RF radiating source.

Preparing the Site

When installing the Wavion WBS-2400, you must follow the appropriate electrical and building
codes to ensure safe and durable wiring. Follow the National Electrical Code (NEC)
requirements, unless local codes in your area take precedence over the NEC code.
For installations that have 10/100 Base-T Category 5 network cables attached to the Wavion
WBS-2400, there is a distance limit of 100m maximum between devices for 10/100BaseT
operation.
An appropriate ground cable should be available. Grounding through electrical wiring or CAT-5
cable is not sufficient.
Please refer to standards for building entrance protection.
