ExTENDING YOUR WIRELESS SIGNAL

Even with a clear line-of-sight between your camera(s) and your receiver, you 

may experience a lower frame rate simply due to the distance between your 

wireless devices. Accessory antennas are available that can help extend the 

range of your wireless signal. Visit 

www.lorexcctv.com

 for more details.
