NetBotz USB Coordinator & Router Installation Guide
Positioning the USB Coordinator & Router
When planning your installation locations, be sure to place each USB
Coordinator & Router within range of the Coordinator or another Router. The
maximum wireless range of the USB Coordinator & Router is 100 ft (line of
sight). This range is a best-case scenario and the signal will be strongly affected
by environmental interference. Use the RSSI sensor reading (available in the
device’s sensor listing in Advanced View) to tune device placement.
To improve connection strength, it is recommended to use a Router in every
third rack to boost reception.
The recommended minimum distance between wireless devices is 2 ft.
Additional information on device placement may be found on the APC
Knowledge Base, http://www.apc.com/support/answers.cfm.
Note: Install the USB Coordinator & Router in an environment
compatible with the environmental specifications on page 16.
