Designing Your System

This section describes the best ways to locate one or more DockLINKs, and to orient the DockLINK’s Radio Unit.

For best performance, orient the DockLINK’s Radio Unit perpendicular to the horizon. Because signal strength and quality diminish when the Radio Unit is enclosed, it is best to locate the Radio Unit outside of cabinets. The most suitable locations are above obstacles such as cubical walls or shelves.

For the highest quality wireless network coverage, spacing between DockLINKs and other wireless stations should not exceed 150 feet in semi-enclosed offices. Office conditions vary; actual maximum distances depend on your office environment.
