Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range
2.4 GHZ Directional Wireless Panel Antenna
Use the 2.4GHz Directional Wireless Panel Antenna
(model #: ACCANTD9) to focus a
specific camera in order to increase the range of
transmission (clear line-of-sight between the camera and
the antenna is required). A 20ft extension cable is included
to help to properly position the antenna.
Scenario 1: Single Receiver Installation
Attach a directional antenna to the one or both cameras and/or the receiver. It is
recommended to attach the antenna to the receiver and place it in a location that has clear
line-of-sight to the camera. Ensure that the directional antenna is pointing toward the
other antenna. For example, if the directional antenna is connected to your receiver, the
directional antenna should point at the camera (see figure above). During the installation,
check the reception on your DVR.
Scenario 2: Multiple Camera / Receiver Installation
If you are using multiple wireless cameras and receivers in your installation, attach
directional antennas to the camera(s) and receiver(s) that are farthest away from each
other. Follow these guidelines to increase the signal strength between your cameras and
receivers:
• Point directional antennas towards the receiver for each camera.
• Keep as much space as possible between each receiver.
• Keep as much space as possible between directional antennas if using more than one.
• Minimize the amount of obstructions (e.g. walls or trees) between the antennas and receivers.
• During the installation, check the reception of each camera on your DVR.
