The Range Extender Antenna Provides Extra Coverage
The range extension of ORiNOCO products varies based upon physical environment. Range increase is calculated proportionally below based upon 'typical' office environments:
* Range Extender on ONE side of a wireless link (either the client or AP) gives you 50% in open enviornment and 15% in a semi-open enviornment
* Range Extender on BOTH sides of a wireless link (on both the client and the AP) gives you 100% in open enviornment and 30% in a semi-open enviornment.
In Open Environments, there are no physical obstructions between antennas. In Semi-Open Environments, the work space is divided by shoulder-height, hollow wall elements and the antennas are at desktop level.
