Chapter 5: Mounting the Cameras

Camera distance from Wi-Fi NVR.
Your wire free cameras will reach up to 300 ft. wirelessly. Therefore, proper placement of the Wi-Fi
NVR in your home will help ensure you achieve maximum coverage.
Do NOT place near high voltage wires or other sources of electrical interference.
Electrical interference will degrade the quality of the signal.
When your wireless signal is transmitted through various materials, such as walls and windows,
the signal strength is affected. Though the Wi-Fi NVR and wire free camera may be very close
in proximity, you could still notice high signal interference if the signal passes through certain
obstacles. For instance, if the signal passes through a concrete wall it will be severely weakened.
Please reference the chart below to see which obstacles highly affect your signal and which do not.
to ensure that all components function properly.
