Antenna Specification MatrixSecurity ServiceZyxel dedicates itself to antenna design optimization for deliver fast and reliable WiFi service. As antennas are the major component of Wireless LAN access points, it’s imperative to pay attention to patterns optimal for different deployment scenarios. Most Zyxel Wireless LAN APs are designed for ceiling-mount typically at heights of 3 to 5 meters; if this is not allowed due to environment
restrictions, wall-mount installation is recommended for better performance. Please refer to the tables below for patterns of internal and bundled detachable antennas of Zyxel access points as a tool for planning the best wireless LAN deployments – especially when you have to cope with strong interference or deploy in high-density venues.
