Appendix F: Extending Wireless Range
Appendix F: Extending Wireless Range
The receiver included with the LW2110 series does not support range extender antennas. Should you require a wireless range extension, a range extender accessory kit is available.
Wireless range extension should be considered if you experience a low signal strength (1 or 2 signal bars) due to an extended distance between the receiver and camera, or because of objects preventing line of sight between the receiver and camera.
The range extender accessory kit includes a 20ft cable and a higher power indoor/outdoor antenna which allows you to reposition the antenna outdoors for direct line of sight with the camera OR simply to get around objects which are blocking the wireless signal (e.g. metal walls). Find an example below of a typical situation in which a range extender kit is used to achieve line of sight to improve signal strength.
Example 1: No line of sight
Example 2: Line of sight achieved through use of range extender
