Antenna setup and planning for SpeechLine Digital Wireless
When planning the installation of SpeechLine Digital Wireless devices for each room, observe the following guidelines.
- Mount all SpeechLine Digital Wireless receivers together in one rack.
- Make sure to have a direct line of sight between the transmitters and the receiving antennas.
-
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 the AWM 4 for two receivers. Option 1: Connecting the AWM 2 or AWM 4 antenna wall mount directly to the receiver(s)
- Option 2: remotely mounted using the AWM 2 or AWM 4 and multiple receivers combined using an antenna splitter (passive splitters SL PASC 2 or SL PASC 4). Option 2: Combining multiple links to one AWM 2/AWM 4
- Option 3: mounted in a rack (front) Option 3: Rack mounting - front
- Option 4: mounted in a rack (rear). Option 4: Rack mounting - rear
- When mounting antennas remotely, observe the minimum distance to possibly existing DECT access points and also take into account the cable lengths.
- 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.
