Installing the antenna

Base stations

• External antenna kits, P/N 56510-xx

The antenna should be installed in a vertical position. The exact location of the antenna depends on several factors, such as the size of the overall system and the coverage area terrain contours. A rule of thumb is that the base station antenna should be located at the highest point of the coverage area and as close to the center of the coverage area as possible. The base station antenna can also be located inside a building, if the walls of the building do not contain metal.
