Installing the Extricom WLAN System
Determining the Location of the Extricom Access
Points
Before installing the switch and Access Points, plan the placement of the APs. Before permanently
mounting the APs, it is recommended to test the network (using a laptop client) to identify potential
problems such as coverage holes. If such a problem exists, Extricom’s advanced technology enables
you to easily add or relocate the APs without any need for frequency or cell planning.
The APs should be placed in a stable, secure location, such as on top of a closet or bookshelf, or
mounted on a wall.
The switch should be placed near the distribution point of the LAN line. This is usually in the
communication cabinet of your enterprise.
