Adding Range Extender Kit for Large Home and Properties

For larger homes and properties it may be necessary to install the wireless Range Extender kit (P/N 520561). The wireless Range Extender kit transfers the wireless signal for better coverage where you primarily use your Tablet and/or PDA. The wireless Range Extender kit consists of two wall-plugs that plug into your home’sAC power wall outlets. The first wireless extender wall-plug connects to the ScreenLogic wireless router via an Ethernet cable (RJ45/CAT5). The second wall-plug does not require connection wires. This wireless extender wall-plug picks up and broadcasts the ScreenLogic wireless router signal for better coverage in the area of the home where the wireless Tablet and/or PDA are primarily used. For more information about the Range Extender, see page 86.

Better wireless coverage for larger homes and properties
