DS.11 FAQ
A-5
Collocation
How many BU-DS.11 or RB-DS.11 units can be
collocated on the same building or tower?
You can collocate up to 3 BU-DS.11 or RB-DS.11 units on
the same structure. Each unit is assigned to one of the non-
overlapping channels, 1, 6, or 11.
What is the antenna separation requirement for
collocating BU-DS.11 or RB-DS.11 units on the same
building or tower?
The antennas should be mounted at least 2 feet apart when
using UNI-16’s, 15 feet apart when using UNI-24’s, and 75
feet apart when using OMNI-8’s. Greater separation will
improve the link distance.
Can a Frequency Hopping network operate in the same
area as the BreezeNET DS.11?
Yes, but in a collocated network both products will suffer
some a decrease in performance. The degree of performance
loss depends on network utilization. For example, the higher
the utilization of the Frequency Hopping network, the higher
the level of impact on the Direct Sequence (DS.11) network,
and vice versa. Typically, in light to moderately utilized
networks, the performance loss is not significant.
