Environment openness: The less cluttered and open your
work environment, the greater the Bridge’s radio range.
Building materials : The floor-to-floor penetration of the
Bridge’s radio depends on the materials in your building’s
construction. For example, the radios will achieve a greater
range when used in buildings that have drywall rather than
concrete block walls.
Outdoor Locations
Radio ranges for outdoor locations are basically determined
by antenna elevation, path clearances, and line-of-sight
considerations.
Outdoor applications will achieve greater radio ranges when
the antenna is elevated as high as possible.
Line of Sight —When considering line of sight criteria be
sure that there are no obstructions between antennas. You
can attain ranges up to 300 meters (1,000 feet) with 1.8
meters (6 feet) elevation of both antennas and up to 40
kilometers (25 miles) with directional antennas at both ends
and appropriate elevation and maximum path clearance.
