Product Benefit

The N300 Outdoor PoE Access Point is the point of connection to wireless outdoor

networks for service providers deploying services to business or residential broadband

subscribers. Network administrators can create multiple subscriber service tier using

per-subscriber rate limiting features, and manage centrally.

Installation Considerations

There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.

1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather

than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal

you will lose.

2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the

range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will

minimize the amount of obstructions between them.

3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor

environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through

less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass

or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.

4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the

wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for

your wireless devices.

5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact

your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF

noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.

If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices

or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide

the necessary coverage depending on the environment.
