Radio Ranges
Signal strength can be affected by closeness to metal surfaces and solid high-density
materials. The ranges listed in Table 3 provide a general guideline and may vary according
to the actual physical environment where the product is used.
• In open environments, there are no physical obstructions between antennas.
• In semi-open environments, work space is divided by shoulder-height, hollow wall
elements; antennas are at desktop level.
