Access Point Spacing Recommendations
If you have a Wi-Fi device such as an AP and you are going to use another AP in the vicinity on a
different channel, it is recommended that you space each AP apart by approximately 6 Ft (2 meters).
Avoid clustering the APs or the antennas from different APs together, as this could cause degradation in
performance. This recommended distance is based on the assumption that both devices operate in the
unlicensed band and do not transmit RF energy more than 23 dB - that is, 200 mW. If higher power is
used, space farther apart.

Should you have other devices that transmit, especially if they operate in the same frequency ranges, for
example, frequency hopping legacy APs or other devices that operate close in frequency to those of the
AP (think below or above the 2.4 and 5 GHz band), you should consider moving or separating the devices
as far apart as can reasonably be done. After you have done this, check for interference by testing both
devices at the same time under heavy utilization (load) and then characterize each system independently
to see how much, if any, degradation exists.

Warning
In order to comply with FCC, EU, and EFTA RF exposure limits, antennas should be located at a
minimum of 7.9 inches (20 cm) or more from the body of all persons. See the installation guide under
declaration of conformity for more on this

Installations in IDF Closets (Telecommunications or other Electrical
Equipment)
Equipment)
When installing APs near other electrical or telecommunications equipment, keep all wiring and metal
away from the antennas and avoid placing the antennas near electrical lines. Do not route wiring
electrical or Ethernet in the near field (6-15 inches) from the antenna. Try to refrain from installing the
AP in the electrical closet, as the best place for the AP is as close to the users as possible/practical. If
you remote antenna cables from such a closet, you may be required to use Plenum rated cable (see local
fire/safety regulations for more on this).

Installations at Very High Altitudes
While not defined in the specification sheet for the AP 2600 and AP 3600, these Access Points passed
functional checks after a Non-Operational altitude test of 25C @ 15,000 Ft was performed. Additionally,
they fully passed a functional test during an operational altitude test of 40C @ 9,843 Ft.

All units in the test group were connected to at least one WLAN client and monitored for continual
operation passing traffic, and performing constant ping testing throughout the operational altitude test.
