General Hints and Tips
This section provides some useful tips that will optimize the reliability and
performance of your XS-3900 unit(s).
z The XS-3900 requires careful handling. For best performance, units
should be mounted in a dust-free and temperature-controlled
environment.
z If using multiple XS-3900s at the same location, we recommend
maintaining a distance of at least 50 feet between units.
z Keep the XS-3900 away from electrical devices or appliances that generate
RF noise. Because the XS-3900 is generally mounted on ceilings, be aware
of its position relative to lighting (especially fluorescent lighting).
z If using AC power, each XS-3900 unit requires its own dedicated AC
power outlet. Do not attempt to “piggy-back” AC power to multiple
units. If deploying multiple units, consider using the optional Xirrus
Remote DC Power System (XP-3100).
z If you are deploying multiple units, ensure that the “clock face” of all
units is aligned in the same direction.
z The XS-3900 should only be used with Wi-Fi certified client devices.
