Installing a Remote Antenna
If the WirelessHART gateway is mounted indoors, or if there are many metal obstacles in the
immediate surroundings, you can also connect a remote antenna to the WirelessHART
gateway. Note that the use of a different antenna or the use of an antenna with a different
antenna gain is subject to legal restrictions.
