4.1.4 Find a suitable place for the outdoor-set
Before you can begin with the installation you must find a suit-
able place for the outdoor set.
Try to choose a place on the rooftop where there is a visible line
of sight to the central radio tower. Consider the following:
•
For best results, the antenna on the outdoor housing should
directly face the receiving station (line of sight).
•
Trees, plants, other buildings, walls, etc. can prevent a clear
line of sight.
•
Determine the shortest path for the data cable. The maxi-
mum length of the data cable may not exceed 300ft.
•
For installation, choose a discreet place that is not directly
noticeable from the ground. However, aesthetic views are
secondary in respect to a proper operation of the WIMAN.
•
Be sure that no other antenna systems operating in the
2,4 GHz ISM band are installed at the selected installation
point. If such an antenna system is installed there, contact
your WIMAN Distributor.
