CAUTION:
Placement of the WavePOINT-II must satisfy the following
installation requirements:
a.
Connect the unit to a grounding type AC wall outlet
(100-240 VAC) using the standard power cord as
supplied with the unit.
b.
Placement must allow for easily disconnecting the
WavePOINT-II unit from the AC wall-outlet.
c.
Do not cover the unit, or block the airflow to the unit
with any other objects. Keep the unit away from
excessive heat and humidity and keep the unit free
from vibration and dust.
d.
Installation must at all times conform to local
regulations.

outdoor antenna system, consult the documentation
that came with the outdoor antenna kit for additional
regulatory information, safety instructions and
installation requirements.
Indoor Antenna Placement
2
The integrated antennas of your WaveLAN card perform best in an
open environment with as few obstructions as possible. In most
situations mounting the WaveLAN radio module as pictured in
Figure 2-4 on page 2-8 or Figure C-1 on page C-1, will provide
satisfactory performance results. To ensure the best performance:
■
Place the WavePOINT-II as high and as centrally as possible
(relative to the WaveLAN stations in the vicinity).
■
Do not conceal the antenna.
■
(Optional) Use the WaveLAN card in combination with an
external antenna.
