4.6 Recommendations about antenna placement and orientation
Antenna placement rul es
• The antennas sho uld be oriented vertically, so perpendicular to the ceiling and parallel to the walls.
• The antennas should be installed far enough (at least 50c m/1.6ft) from m etallic surfaces to avoid unwanted reflections and
far enough (at least 1m /3.3ft) from other radio equipment that operates in the sam e frequency range, e.g. other Wi-Fi access
points, cordless telephone, microwave ovens, …. It is also best to install antennas at least 15 cm (6 inches) from concrete walls.
• The most favorable situation is a direct line of sight between antennas and Buttons. A ny obstruction will cause the signal to
follow a longer propagation path, which can result in performance degradation.
• Due to the particular radio pattern of the dipole antennas, the a ntennas should not be placed just abov e potential pos itions of
ClickShare users. As a result, the advised pos ition for the antennas is at the side of the meeting room.
