ORiNOCO Series System Recommended Antennas Introduction 1 This Recommended Antennas guide supplements the Tsunami MP.11 Antenna Installation Guide. The Antenna Installation Guide explains how to install and set up an outdoor antenna with the Tsunami MP.11 hardware devices. This guide does not explain how to erect antenna masts, nor how to install a safety grounding system. These prerequisites must be in place before installing the directional antenna.
Introduction Who Should Use This Guide ORiNOCO Series System Recommended Antennas IMPORTANT! Local radio regulations or legislation may impose restrictions on the use of specific combinations of: • Low-loss antenna cables and outdoor antennas • Radio channels selected at the radios that are connected to specific outdoor antennas At all times, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that an outdoor antenna installation complies with local radio regulations.
Introduction Antenna Types ORiNOCO Series System Recommended Antennas Antenna Types Wireless radios generate signals on a given frequency. Antennas distribute that signal through the air in a particular pattern. Antennas take a given power output and make it reach further by reducing directions along which the signal is radiated. Concentrating the signal on your workspace makes better use of your wireless radio’s power output.
Introduction Antenna Types ORiNOCO Series System Recommended Antennas Flat Panel Directional Antennas Flat panel directional antennas produce hemispherical coverage, spreading away from the mount point at a width of 30 to 180 degrees typically. Concentrating the signal on this smaller area increases system range. Figure 1-2 Flat Panel Antenna Coverage Sector Antennas Sector antennas are high-gain directional antennas. These cylinders contain a boom supporting thin vertical rods.
Introduction Antenna Types ORiNOCO Series System Recommended Antennas Parabolic Dish Antennas Parabolic antennas are concave panels or bowls that produce an extremely narrow beam (4 – 25 degrees horizontal / vertical).
