Access Point Placement Guidelines

A characteristic of radio communication is the “interference” problem. Radio is receptive to interference. Therefore, the more interference you can avoid, the better performance you will get from wireless products. The following section describes how the InstantWave High Rate AP should be placed to reduce possible interference.

A few tips to mention that are particularly significant in a radio wave communications system:

1.Radio waves reflect or refract from buildings, walls, metal furniture, or other objects. This could result in performance degradation due to the fluctuation of the received signal.

2.Microwave ovens use the 2.45 GHz frequency band. InstantWave High Rate also functions in the 2.4 ~ 2.5 GHz band, and therefore shares some of the band with microwave ovens. This means that when a nearby microwave oven is in use, it may interfere with InstantWave High Rate, resulting in performance degradation on the wireless network.

Placing For Performance

For the best performance, it is advisable that users follow the guidelines below in placing the product:

Place the AP as high as possible, in as open an area as possible

Avoid placing the AP (especially the antenna) close to metal objects (e.g., file cabinets, metal cubicles, etc.)

Keep APs and Stations as far away as possible from microwave ovens (10 meters min. is advisable)

Placement Tools

InstantWave High Rate includes a Station utility program to help users find the best location in which to place the AP relative to the location of the Stations.

1.Start the AP

2.Allow a wireless Station to connect with the AP

3.From the Station, run the InstantWave High Rate Station Monitor RF Signal Quality Program

4.Move the AP and the AP’s antenna to find the best signal quality

Mounting the AP

The AP may be either freestanding or wall-mounted. Screws and a paper template are provided for easy installation.
