7.1.1 Polarization
The AirMax5 is equipped with dual diversity antenna; one in horizontal polarization and one
in vertical polarization. For 2 wireless devices to connect, their antennas must use the
same polarization.
Vertical: The polarization of the antenna is vertical, in the same direction as the
AirMax5. This settings is the default and most used.
Horizontal: The polarization of the antenna is horizontal, 90 degree from the
direction of the case.
Diversity: The AirMax5 will auto switch between vertical and horizontal
antennas based on the RSSI level detected. However, the performance can
suffer if the switching happens too frequently
Please make sure there is no polarization mismatch when settings up
the wireless link
