2.4 Access Point Placement
For optimal performance, install the access point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors,
fluorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators and other industrial equipment. Signal loss can
occur when metal, concrete, walls or floors block transmission. Install the access point in an open
area or add access points as needed to improve coverage.
Antenna coverage is analogous to lighting. Users might find an area lit from far away to be not bright
enough. An area lit sharply might minimize coverage and create dark areas. Uniform antenna
placement in an area (like even placement of a light bulb) provides even, efficient coverage.
Place the access point using the following guidelines:
NOTE The access point façade with 6 Element Antenna (Part No.
ML-2452-PTA2M3X3-1) is separately orderable and provides an
integrated antenna option. The facade connects to the access point as
illustrated. Once attached, the LEDs continue to illuminate through the
facade. Contact your Motorola Solutions sales associate for information
on ordering a facade with your access point.
