Distance between 5 GHz transmitters
The number of 5 GHz transmitter systems in the near surroundings has impact on the
stability as each transmitter occupies bandwidth and therefore in dense signal areas
influence each other. To obtain the most stable wireless transmission, Bang & Olufsen has
made a number of recommendations for the setup of transmitter systems.
A Bang & Olufsen stereo system setup or surround sound system setup is regarded as one
transmission system and consists of a BeoLab Transmitter 1 or a TV with internal WPL
transmitter and all associated speakers. Similarly a 5 GHz Access Point and all associated
computers is regarded a transmission system.
- The distance between a 5 GHz transmitter and a speaker must be no more than 12 metres/
40 ft; see
page 6
.
- The stereo/surround sound setup must be within an area of maximum 9 × 9 metres/ 30 ×
30 ft; see
page 6
.
- Transmitters and speakers must not be placed closer to other wireless units than 1 meter/
3.3 ft.
- There must be no more than three transmission systems within an area called the 6 metres/
20 ft zone, see illustration A. *
Power-up sequence:
- In case of more Bang & Olufsen BeoLab transmitter systems in the same room, it is recommended to power only one at the time and wait at least
1 minute before powering up additional units.
* In countries with less than 6 channels available, see
page 25
, it is recommended to have only 1 additional transmitter system within the 6 metres
zone.
