(optional) or the wireless LAN antenna SNCA-AN1
(optional) that can be connected to SNCA-CFW1, you
can select one of the following antenna settings.

used for transmission. Suitable for a short-range
sending and receiving because it is non-directional.
External: Select it when you need a long-range sending
and receiving with connecting SNCA-AN1 to
SNCA-CFW1.
Diversity: Select it when you need both a short-range
and a long-range sending and receiving at the same
time while SNCA-AN1 is connected to SNCA-
CFW1.
The high sensitive antenna is selected.
Notes
• When you remove the wireless LAN card, be sure to
first turn off the power of the camera.
• When you use a wireless LAN card, the throughput of
communication data through the Ethernet may
decrease.
