Select a Location

All AP300 interconnected equipment, including the associated LAN connection, must be contained within the same building. In addition, the AP300 location should meet the following conditions:

 Relatively unobstructed access to the stations the AP serves. Select a location with minimal physical obstructions between the AP and the wireless stations. In an office with cubicles, mounting the APs below a hanging ceiling (plenum is supported) or the wall near the ceiling provides the least obstructed communications path. On a wall, orient the AP300 horizontally so that you can read the

Meru logo without tilting your head at 90 degrees - this orientation provides optimum MIMO performance.
