Device placement
The V2 Metro Cell - Outdoor emits a radio signal similar to a Wi-Fi router. The quality of
coverage achieved therefore depends upon where the device is placed.
For best results it should be located:
•
In a central place within the public space
•
As high as possible, for example, high shelving, wall mounted
To improve coverage, avoid installing near the following:
•
Other radio transmitters
•
Other metallic devices or objects
•
Windows
Tip:
In order to limit the amount of solar radiation on the Metro Cell when the device
is pole mounted, it is recommended to orientate the Metro Cell in a northerly
direction. With this orientation the pole mounting bracket acts as a solar shield.
