RF connectors. Regardless of the configuration, it is essential to always install the antenna on RF1, while the an-
tenna on RF2 remains optional.

If the RF1 and RF2 antennas are connected via extension cables rather than being directly screwed into the router,
they must be positioned at least 7 cm apart. For optimal performance, it is recommended to maintain a maximum dis-
tance of 25 cm between the two antennas. To comply with EMC regulations, the extension cable length should not
exceed 3 meters.
For best results, it is recommended to use radio frequency accessories, such as antennas and cables, specifically
endorsed by Teldat.
Teldat offers a range of accessories, including 90º mount antennas, outdoor and ceiling installation antennas, exten-
sion cables, and more. These accessories provide flexibility for installing the devices in various locations.
4.2.4.1 Placing the Antenna
The performance of devices can be greatly affected by the orientation and placement of their antennas, especially in
relation to other wireless and radiation-emitting devices such as communication devices and personal computers.
Antennas are designed to transmit and receive radio signals, but their efficiency is also influenced by environmental
factors like the distance from the base station, physical barriers, and interference from other radio frequencies (RF).
To ensure optimal coverage, follow these guidelines:
• When positioning your antenna, avoid physical obstructions that could block the wireless signal, such as walls or
large objects. These can reduce signal quality. Ideally, place the antenna above ground level and directed towards
the nearest base station.
• Consider the material density around the antenna. Keep it away from walls, metal screens, mirrors, and other ma-
terials that might disrupt signal reception.
• Avoid placing the antenna near columns or other objects that may cast shadows and reduce the coverage area.
• Ensure the antenna is not placed near metal pipes used for heating, air-conditioning, or other similar purposes.
• Be aware that other wireless devices, like telephones and microwaves, may cause temporary radio signal interfer-
ence.
• Avoid installing antennas near or between racks that contain communication devices or computers. Instead, use an
extension cable to position the antenna outside the rack for better signal performance.
The following recommendations apply to all wireless devices:
• Avoid touching or moving the antenna while the device is transmitting or receiving signals.
• Refrain from coming into contact with any equipment that contains radiation-emitting devices when they are in
close proximity to exposed parts of the body, especially the face and eyes, during transmission.
• Do not install the device in potentially explosive areas.
• Be aware that wireless devices can interfere with other equipment; therefore, avoid using them in areas where
medical devices are present.
• To ensure compliance with the 2014/53/EU RED directive, operate the device at least 20 cm away from your body.
