Antenna solutions for SpeechLine Digital Wireless

This document gives an overview over several possibilities of mounting and using antennas for a

SpeechLine Digital Wireless system. Furthermore, this document provides recommendations on

several aspects which should be considered for the different antenna solutions.

Antenna setup planning for SpeechLine Digital Wireless

When planning the installation of SpeechLine Digital Wireless rack receivers and antennas for each

room, observe the following guidelines:

f Mount all SpeechLine Digital Wireless receivers of one room together in one rack.

f Make sure to have a direct line of sight between the transmitters and the receiving antennas.

f Depending on the room characteristics there are several options how to install the receiving

antennas. We recommend the following options in this order:

• Option 1: remotely mounted using the AWM 2 for one receiver or AWM 4 for two receivers

• Option 2: remotely mounted using the AWM 2 or AWM 4 with multiple receivers combined

(passive combiner)

• Option 3: mounted in a rack (front)

• Option 4: mounted in a rack (rear)

f When mounting antennas remotely, observe the minimum distance to possibly existing DECT

access points and also take into account the cable lengths.

f Always switch all receivers on and off with a common power supply (e.g. a multi-outlet power

strip with a central on/off switch) in order to achieve the best performance of a system.

For further technical details and recommendations on the four options please refer to the

chapter „Antenna mounting options“ starting on the next page.
