Access Point Installation

Best Practices

  • Direct the face of the access point toward the intended microphone coverage area.
  • Position the access point in the same room as the conference units, and with an unobstructed line of sight to the microphones.
  • Keep the device away from large metal objects.
  • Keep at least eight feet between all access points.
  • Mount with the XLR ports accessible, as it may be useful for connecting external equipment.
