7 dBi Omni-directional Antenna ANT2407

Extended wireless network coverage: 400–450 M. The actual indoor range will be affected by the local environment.

Note: For optimal results in extending wireless range with antenna installations, consult a qualified professional installer service for a site survey and proper installation. For a list of devices approved by the FCC for use with the antenna, see the NETGEAR website at http://tools.netgear.com/legal/fcc_antennas.html.

Antenna Placement and Location

Warning: Keep the antenna 15 cm (6 in) away from notebook computers and monitors.

To maximize coverage and performance, place the antenna within the line of sight of your wireless devices. Minimize partitions and objects that block the line of sight if possible. The antenna can be placed on a flat surface, wall mounted, or magnet mounted.

- If wall-mounting, place the antenna on an interior wall above cubicles (cubicles generally include a metal foil). Ideal placement is 2 meters (6.5 feet) high.

- If the wireless access point, router, or gateway, is in an IT room, place the antenna outside the room against a wall and close to the ceiling. The area close to, behind, or beside the antenna will be covered, because the dynamic range of the WLAN transmitter/receiver and antenna is approximately 100 dB. Even with 20 dB to 40 dB or attenuation, the signal strength is still strong and communication is maintained.

- The antenna has magnets in the base, which can be used to mount it on metal cabinets, white boards, or even the ceiling cross bars (the framework that holds the ceiling panels up).

Installing the Antenna

Turn off your wireless access point, and connect your ANT2407 antenna. Note that the antenna has a RP SMA female reverse connector. If your wireless access point is new, follow the access point installation instructions. If you are upgrading an existing access point, turn it on again.

Notes: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital devices, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this compartment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment of and reo, the user is encouraged to try to extract the interference by one or more of the following measures: (1) Recent or relocate the receiving antenna; (2) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver; (3) Connect the equipment to an outlet or circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected; (4) Consult the dealer as an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC and EU Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. To avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna must be less than 20 cm (8 inches) during normal operation.

This device should not be co-located with other transmitters.

For EU, use of any antenna requires careful planning and extra considerations to comply with EU emissions and health standards and regulations. Antenna installation must comply with the maximum level authorized by each country.
