When the FL WLAN 511x is used as the client, roaming can be done on the basis of the signal strength (RSSI). In these cases, we recommend using the leaky cable section layout shown in the figure. This leads to the necessary difference between the signal levels. Figure 2-16 Roaming based on different signal strengths PHOENIX CONTACT 107048_en_02...
