Placement and Range Guidelines
Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11 wireless networks at a maximum range of 500 feet (152.4 m) for 802.11b
devices. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless connection can vary significantly, based on the
physical placement of the wireless access point.
For best results, identify a location for your wireless access point according to these guidelines:
•
Away from potential sources of interference, such as PCs, large metal surfaces, microwaves, and 2.4 GHz cordless
phones.
•
In an elevated location such as a high shelf that is near the center of the wireless coverage area for all mobile
devices.
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance degradation or inability to wirelessly connect to
the wireless access point.
To meet FCC and other national safety guidelines for RF exposure, the antennas for this device must be installed to
ensure a minimum separation distance of 20cm (7.9 in.) from persons. Further, the antennas shall not be colocated with
other transmitting structures.
