  Installation

• Avoid positioning the antennas in a horizontal manner, this may result in a weak signal reception:

• If the Host is attached to a metallic ceiling mount ensure that the antennas are at least 3 cm away 

from the metal portion of the ceiling mount:

For table placement

Position the antennas so that they are both pointed upwards roughly perpendicular to the table:

Connecting the HDMI cable and power

Once the Host has been positioned properly near the display, connect the HDMI cable and power to 
ensure signal transmission.
