Dual Network Extender
Placement
If the building’s dimensions are larger than the radius of a single Network
Extender; the following process will help determine how many Network Extenders
you require.
For health and safety reasons, the Network Extender should be placed in a location
where people will not pass within 20cm (7.9 inches) of the antennas.
The process for placing your Network Extenders is as follows:
1.
Determine if the Verizon 4G LTE coverage is 2 bars or less
2.
Review the approximated range
3.
Check recommended spacing
Step 1: Determine the range of your Network Extenders from Table 2. below.
In the event that a single Network Extender range is not able to cover the entire
building, the recommended spacing must be taken into consideration. User
experience will differ depending on number of users and services in use and
existing coverage from the Verizon 4G LTE network. The table below assumes
that the Network Extender is operating at full power.

If you regularly observe more than 2 bars of 4G LTE coverage throughout your
building, then you may require professional assistance for installation. The
recommended capacity of the Network Extender can be found in the Auxiliary
Network Extender Placement Considerations at the end of this document.
Step 2: Determine the placement of your first Network Extender.
Your first Network Extender should be placed in a location towards one end of the
building. Both corners of the building should be near the maximum range of the
Network Extender but not beyond it.
