Line of Sight Rating.
This device is rated at 300 feet line of sight
(under ideal circumstances; no interference, barriers or walls), but in
most real-world scenarios, including a wall or two, you will be able to
go about 100 feet.
Metal Barriers.
Radio frequency will not pass through metal barriers
such as aluminum siding or metal wall framing. If you have such metal
barriers and experience communication problems, you must change the
placement of sensor package and or base unit.
The following table shows different transmission media and expected signal
strength reductions. Each “wall” or obstruction decreases the transmission
range by the factor shown below.
Medium
RF Signal Strength Reduction
Glass (untreated)
5-15%
Plastics
10-15%
Wood
10-40%
Brick
10-40%
Concrete
40-80%
Metal
90-100%
