Optimal range outdoors
The specified range is only valid outdoors in open air. Change the position of one or both units to optimise the range.
Calculate your range

- Material thickness < 30cm (12in) will have loss of range between 0-10%
- Brick, plywood
- Material thickness < 30cm (12 in) will have loss of range between 5-35%
- Reinforced concrete
- Material thickness < 30cm (12 in) will have loss of range between 30-100%
- Metal grilles or bars
- Material thickness < 30cm (12in) will have loss of range between 30-100%
- Metal or aluminum sheets
