Wireless Equipment Placement and Range Guidelines
The operating distance or range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on
the physical placement of the product family. The latency, data throughput performance, and
notebook power consumption of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration
choices.
the physical placement of the product family. The latency, data throughput performance, and
notebook power consumption of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration
choices.
Note:
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant
performance degradation or inability to wirelessly connect to the

For best results, place your product family:
•
Near the center of the area in which your PCs will operate.
•
In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected PCs have
line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
•
Away from sources of interference, such as PCs, microwaves, and 2.4 GHz cordless
phones.
•
Away from large metal surfaces.
•
Putting the antenna in a vertical position provides best side-to-side coverage. Putting the
antenna in a horizontal position provides best up-and-down coverage.

A wall mount kit is provided with your product family. For installation instructions, see
If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different
radio
frequency
channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between
adjacent access points is five channels (for example, use channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11).
The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security
settings and placement. Some types of security connections can take slightly longer to
establish and can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.
