Transmitter Placement over Sales Floor
Transmitters are placed in a diagonal manner from the front of the store to the back of the
store. There are typically three Tx/ATA antennas placed on the sales floor and one
Tx/ATA placed in the stockroom. This may change due to exception floor plans but will be
the standard for most installations.
Tx-1
Tx-1 is located at the front of the store, generally at the head of aisle 3. As one stands at
the front of the store, facing the back of the store, in-line with aisle 3 (where aisle 3 is
closest to Cosmetics), and between the B10 & C10 end caps, one will notice that they are
standing between two sets of shelving. To the right (to the left in Right Door stores), one
will see the low fixture of the Cosmetics department and to the left (to the right in Right
Door stores), one will see a higher fixture. Pivot to the left (to the right in Right Door
stores) to face the higher fixture. Locate the end cap that is attached to the higher fixture
and is facing the front of the store. Locate the first four-foot section of shelving behind the
end cap. Look up and locate the first full-size ceiling tile that is perpendicular to the
aforementioned section of shelving. The identified ceiling tile must be free of any
obstructions including, but not limited to, fire sprinkler heads, fire/smoke detection
equipment, security camera(s), or any HVAC equipment. The antenna must be centered,
or as centered as possible, over the tile flooring of the aisle. The antenna must also have
a clear line-of-sight to the floor.
Tx-2
Tx-2 is located in the center of the store, centered over the Middle Aisle. From the front of
the store, walk along the Cosmetics wall toward the back of the store. One will notice the
Middle Aisle on the left (on the right in Right Door stores). One should stop and pivot to
the left (to the right in Right Door stores). Walk down the center of the Middle Aisle, toward
the wall opposite the Cosmetics wall, until the fifth aisle from the Cosmetics wall is
reached. In a 9-aisle configuration, one should be standing in the center of the intersection
of aisle 5 and the Middle Aisle. In a 10-aisle configuration, one should walk down the
center of the Middle Aisle, toward the wall opposite the Cosmetics wall, counting end
caps, beginning with the first one encountered (between aisles 1 & 2 on the backside of
the store). One should stop at the fifth end cap. Look up and locate the first full-size ceiling
tile over the center of the Middle Aisle. The identified ceiling tile must be free of any
obstructions including, but not limited to, fire sprinkler heads, fire/smoke detection
equipment, security camera(s), or any HVAC equipment. The antenna must be centered,
or as centered as possible, over the tile flooring of the Middle Aisle. The antenna must
also have a clear line-of-sight to the floor.
