SkyZhone 1600, 1400, 1200 Hardware Install Guide
5.3 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna
impedance is 50 ohms
•
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and
its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropic radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.
Operating the device with the supplied antennas will ensure that this
requirement is met.
•
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not
cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Selecting the locations
Each installation is unique due to the physical environment. Before installing
each SkyZhone access point, perform a site survey to determine the optimum
placement of units for maximum range, coverage, and network performance.
The SkyZhone radio is susceptible to interference that can reduce data rate and
range. For best performance, follow these guidelines:
•
Install the unit in an area where trees, buildings, and large steel
structures do not obstruct radio signals to and from the antenna. Be sure
to consider the future tree growth and construction when considering a
site. Direct line-of-sight operation is always best. Antennae must be
kept at least 10 inches away from contact with the general public
passing by the area.
•
Install the units away from other possible sources of 2.4 GHz WLAN
interference. These sources include cordless phones and microwave
ovens, as well as other WiFi access points.
•
Install the units, when wall-mounted, onto an area that can
accommodate the plastic casing and lid of 24 inches high and at least
36 inches wide.
