Polycom KIRK KWS300 Base Unit 

5

Installing Multiple Base Units in Large Areas (with a radius larger than 100 feet; 100-foot cells overlap)

Cell 1

100 Ft. Radius

Cell 2

Users can roam and talk within their own 100-foot radius cells. Users 
from both cells can talk in the common (overlapping) area. Cells on 
adjacent floors can also overlap.

1.  Follow the previous instructions for installing multiple base 

units and select the optimal locations for up to 5 base units.

2.  Where the 100 ft radius cells overlap, then the maximum number 

of base units installed in the area that overlaps must be 5 or 
fewer to avoid any interference. This includes where adjacent 
floors may overlap.

 
Figure E: 

Overlapping cells support up to 5 base units (total).
