Antenna types
Wi-Q Technology supports two antenna types: Omni-directional, designed to provide
coverage in all directions; and Directional antennas that focus the signal from point-to-point
over longer distances and through obstacles. If you have trouble verifying signals, you may
need to consider some antenna type options.

Power Supply
Wi-Q Gateways must be located where they can receive 12 VDC power from a transformer
plugged into a dedicated power source. If this is not possible, ensure they are plugged in
to a 24/7 power circuit than cannot be turned off at a switch, such as a light switch that
might be turned off by a cleaning crew. Wi-Q Gateways may also be powered with PoE
instead of using the AC wall adapter.
To make your final determination, you must also consider the following:
Access to Ethernet 10/100 Base T network connection.
Proximity to other I/O device(s) if used.
Placement within range of controllers.
Note
Transmit range will vary based on building construction.
