Sector Coverage and Bridge Link Setup
Suitable for installation at high locations, i.e. building rooftop and tower. Recommend the building
height should not be more than 50 meters. The higher the building, the more downtilt angle you should
need for the sector antenna so that the front radome is pointed at the target coverage area. You can
simply determine the downtilt angle by trigonometry formula: tan
-1
(Building Height / Target Range).
For the case of rooftop installation, we recommend the antenna be installed at the corners to reduce
any signal reflection and blocking by building structures. In addition, we should keep a clearance of 1
meter at least above the wall or parapet. The clearance may vary depending on the downtilt angle,
thickness of the wall or parapet and whether there are some other objects or building structures
protruding out of building surface.
