Appendix D: Strengthening the Range of the Wireless Signal

Is your wireless signal choppy? Do you want to extend the range of wireless transmission?

There are several ways to boost your wireless signal as well as options to help you extend the range of the wireless signal.

Clear Line-of-Sight

The digital wireless signal is virtually interference free. However, you should always ensure there is a clear line-of-sight between the camera and the receiver.

Obstacles

There should be little to no obstacles obstructing the line-of-sight between the camera and the receiver. Solid objects, such as concrete and metal may limit the range of the wireless signal.

Extending Your Wireless Signal

Even with a clear line-of-sight between your camera(s) and your receiver, you may experience a lower video frame rate simply due to the distance between your wireless devices.

Accessory antennas are available that can help extend the range of your wireless signal.
