Go to the device’s web interface of a base station and click on
Repeaters
to see the status
and the coverage values of every connected Repeater, check the column

Deployment Issues
!
The following radio related issues should be considered before deploying a typical WILDIX
W-AIR VoIP System:
!
•
Building Penetration:
when a signal strikes on a building it is diffracted or absorbed;
therefore the signal can be reduced. The amount of absorption depends on the building
and its environment, the amount of solid structure.
!
•
Interference Sources:
other signals can create interferences and weaken the signals of the
receiving antennas. These interferences can come from the same network or from the
outside. For choosing the optimal position of the Base station and Repeaters, these potential
interference sources should be considered before installing a Wildix W-AIR system.
!
•
Radio/Cell Range
: a suggested distance between two base stations depends on the
physical path between them. If the path loss is lessened, e.g. by minimizing the amount of
walls/obstacles on the path, then the signals of the base stations cover more distance. In a
typical office building a suggested distance between two base stations is 30-40 m.
!
The purpose of this section is to shortly describe how to plan the base position and the phone
coverage.
The maximum quantity of calls is indicated in the list below:
•
Base stations:
up to 8 simultaneous calls
•
Repeaters:
up to 5 simultaneous calls
