P-660HWP-Dx User’s Guide

For omni-directional antennas mounted on a table, desk, and so on, point the antenna up. For

omni-directional antennas mounted on a wall or ceiling, point the antenna down. For a single

AP application, place omni-directional antennas as close to the center of the coverage area as

possible.

For directional antennas, point the antenna in the direction of the desired coverage area.
