Mounting the Subscriber Station
The RUGGEDCOM WIN5237 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be secured to a
bracket and then mounted to a pole, wall or tower.
NOTE
For detailed dimensions of the subscriber station, refer to
When choosing the mounting location for the unit, consider the available mounting structures and antenna
clearance.
Site Survey
Most wireless networks include many subscriber/base stations installed in various locations in an overlapping
radio-cell pattern. It is important to position each subscriber station in an optimal location considering the
assignment of its radio channels. Therefore, a site survey becomes an essential first step before physically
deploying the subscriber station.
The site survey should include details important to the planning of the subscriber station deployment in each
specific site, including potential mounting points for the subscriber station and antennas, as well as the routing
options for data, power and antenna cables.
Recommended Site Requirements
It is highly recommended the subscriber station be mounted with as few obstructions as possible between itself
and the base station. The subscriber station should be pointed in the direction of the designated server base
station. When choosing the ideal location, it is also important to take into consideration the overall area topology.
