How do the antennas have to be positioned to ensure problem-free con-
nections?
What performance characteristics do the antennas need to ensure suffi-
cient data throughput within the legal limits?
Selection of antennas using the LANCOM Antenna Calculator
You can use the LANCOM Antenna Calculator to calculate the output power
of the access points as well as for a first estimation of the achievable distances
and data rates. The program can be downloaded from our Web site at
www.lancom.eu
.
After selecting your components (access points, antennas, lightning protec-
tion and cable) the calculator works out the data rates, ranges, and the
antenna gain settings that have to be entered into the access point.
Please note that when using 5 GHz antennas additional technologies
such as dynamic frequency selection (DFS) may be stipulated depend-
ing on the country of use. The operator of the wireless LAN system is
responsible for ensuring that local regulations are met.
