The location should be accessible to the installer, and should be easily able to access its time base. This
means that:
1) The repeater should be installed close enough to the network switch or router that the user can run
data cable between both devices. The accepted maximum distance for CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 cable is 328 feet
(100 meters).
2) The repeater must be placed in a location where the signal is not interfered with or blocked. Be aware
of large structures made of stone, concrete, bricks, or sheet metal as these materials will block a wireless
signal. The installer should also be aware of other objects that may cause interference to the transmission
including, but not limited to, large tanks of salt water, old microwave ovens, and large industrial machines.
3) The repeater must be within range of at least one wireless secondary clock. The maximum transmission
distance of the repeater in an unobstructed, open space is 3300 feet (1000 meters). Obstructions will
reduce this distance, particularly obstructions made of the materials mentioned in the previous paragraph.
