User manual BUFFALO WLE-KG-VPA

[. . . ] These radio frequencies lose significant signal strength when traveling through walls, windows and other objects. Materials like metal, stucco and thick concrete can actually stop a wireless signal from passing through. Sometimes these obstacles can be overcome by adding an antenna to your wireless network. Another issue is distance as the signal spreads outward from the source it becomes dispersed and looses signal strength and bandwidth. [. . . ] It should fit flush against the bottom of the connection base. 8 Connecting the Antenna WLE-HG-NDR / WLE-HG-NDC Now connect the N-male to MC-card pigtail adapter to the other end of the cable, as shown. Now connect the MC-Card connector to your Buffalo product. If you are connecting this antenna outside a building or enclosure and high on a pole you should include a Lightning protector like the one shown below. Which can be obtained from third party sources. This device will connect between the antenna and the coaxial cable you will then proceed with the other steps as listed. 9 Antenna Mounting Brackets WLE-KG-VPA / WLE-KG-VPB When mounting an external antenna it is important to pay attention to the location you are installing it. Please be aware that small incremental changes in elevation either up, down or side to side can make significant changes in the signal quality. Several adjustments may be required to achieve the best signal. You should test mount all antennas to check their signal patterns before making their mounting permanent.
