Guidelines
Note the following important guidelines when locating ITS Access Points:
• AP antennas must be more than four inches (10 cm) away from metal
structures. If the antennas are too close to the structure, antenna performance
can be degraded.
• Each ITS Standard Access Point can handle communication with up to 18
wireless clients (patient-worn transceivers or bedside monitors).
• A Core AP alone supports 18 wireless clients. When used with a single RA, the
Core AP supports nine wireless clients and its connected RA supports nine
wireless clients (9+9=18). When used with two RAs, the Core AP supports six
wireless clients and its connected RAs each support six wireless clients
(6+6+6=18).
