Example of Base Station and Repeater positioning
Note:
For a good conversation and a correct handover between bases and Repeaters the dBm value must be
between -75 and 0. Base stations cannot be connected with the help of repeater.

IMPORTANT: Site Survey
!
Before getting started make sure the cordless phone is fully charged, then follow the steps
below:
• place the W-AIR base station exactly at the desired position and power on the base.
• use the building plan drawing and check the base station coverage using the phone and
the Site survey mode of the phone. Mark up the acceptable and unacceptable spots on the
plan drawing. Take a note of the RSSI level of the base. Acceptable spots are the ones
where the phone shows
RSSI levels better than -75 dBm
!
Typically, when the system is installed in the office buildings, hotels or hospitals, there should
be both base stations and Repeaters on several floors to create uniform and complete radio
