Where to Mount The Outdoor Wi-Fi Switch
The Wi-Fi Switch is designed to maximize
operation in a 100° pattern from side to side
(horizontally), and at a 12° pattern vertically.
The Wi-Fi Switch’s ability to communicate
with clients at higher data rates begins to
diminish as you get farther outside of this
pattern. However, reliable Wi-Fi operation is
often available outside of this pattern,
especially when relatively close to the Wi-Fi
Switch.

Wi-Fi Switch Antenna Pattern
Use the following guidelines to determine the best location for the Outdoor Wi-Fi Switch:
•
For best performance, position the Outdoor Wi-Fi Switch where there are no outdoor
obstructions close to a line of sight path to the intended client operating area. For example, trees
contain large amounts of water, which can greatly weaken Wi-Fi signals. Make sure that no tree
limbs or other foliage are within several feet of the line of sight path from the Wi-Fi Switch to
the intended client coverage area.

the intended client coverage area.
•
Do not position the Wi-Fi Switch farther away from the intended coverage area than is necessary.
At a distance of 100 feet, the Wi-Fi Switch’s antenna covers a minimum area of about 240 feet
wide by 21 feet high (see below).

provided.
•
For a single building, or a horizontal row of buildings, center the Wi-Fi Switch in relation
to the coverage area height and width to provide line of sight to each building. Do not
position the Wi-Fi Switch where areas requiring Wi-Fi operation are directly blocked by
another building (see below).
