The Access Point can be installed on a flat surface (for example, on a
desktop) or wall-mounted. When deciding where to install the Access
Point, choose a location that:
Allows easy viewing of the front panel LED indicator lights, and access
■
to the rear panel connectors, if necessary.
Is centrally located to the wireless computers that will connect to the
■
Access Point. A suitable location might be on top of a high shelf or
similar furniture to optimize wireless connections to computers in
both horizontal and vertical directions, allowing wider coverage.
When positioning your Access Point, ensure:
It is out of direct sunlight and away from sources of heat.
■
Cabling is away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and
■
sources of electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and broadband
amplifiers.
There are no thick walls or metal shielding between the Access Point
■
and the wireless stations. In ideal conditions, the Access Point has a
range of around 150 meters (450 feet). The range is reduced, and
transmission speed is lower, if there are any obstructions between the
wireless devices.
Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.
■
Air flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case
■
is not restricted. 3Com recommends you provide a minimum of 25
mm (1 in.) clearance.
