Some questions about a CPE710 antenna
Hello, there
It is my first post here, my name is Stefan - I was born and living in Bulgaria. Our customer need to build completely new video surveillance system on its property. There are some buildings in there, but this is not so important at the moment. I did check the specs of CPE710 antenna, and it may fits our needs - 1Gbit eth-port and 802.11ac wireless interfaces. The main idea is to make a Peer to MultiPeer because the IP-cameras will be positioned all around of property. I did check the antenna horizontal angle spread (azimuth), and as I understand it covers approx a 7° wich is kind of innacceptable for our purposes. But I saw something in the manual of the product quote:
The CPE device without the reflector installed provides outdoor -to-indoor Wi-Fi coverage with the Feed only mode
What if we use that "trick" and install a main CPE710 (without a reflector) as a AP (main) ? I mean - the distance we should cover is not so long - 150m is the longest one (the property size is 90x110m). If a client CPEs has its reflectors installed and pointed to the main CPE (AP) will this work for us? I will try to draw some kind of schematic of what we need for.
I will attach the schematic ASAP.
Thanks in advance
Stefan
