APPENDIX F

User’s Manual

The range of the Wireless signal is related to the Transmit Rate of the Wireless communication. Communications at lower Transmit range may travel longer distances.

NOTE: The range values listed in Table F-4 are typical distances as measured at the TOSHIBA Wireless LAN laboratories. These values provide rule-of-thumb guides. They may vary according to the actual radio conditions at the location where the Wireless LAN product is installed.

◆The range of your Wireless devices can be affected when the antennas are placed near metal surfaces and solid high-density materials.

◆Range is also affected by obstacles in the signal path of the radio that may either absorb or reflect the radio signal.

Table F-4 lists the typical ranges when used indoors in office environments such as the following:

◆In Open Office environments, where antennas can see each other, i.e. there are no physical obstructions between them.

◆In Semi-open Office environments, where work space is divided by shoulder- height, hollow wall elements; antennas are at desktop level.

◆In Closed Office environments, work space is separated by floor-to-ceiling solid walls.
