I have deployed one of these devices in the back room of a retail establishment. It is mounted to a wall up near the ceiling in order to get the best signal, but it is still not getting the best of results. We have high latency and low upload speed.
Due to the cinder block walls and metal ceiling, would we get better results if we used a different antenna? Is there an antenna extension that we should use?
When I do retail installs I put the BR1 at the front of the store, normally high up on the cable tray, but as close as possible to the windows / door.
That location with just the stick antennas will help a lot.
You can power the BR1 with a POE injector splitter so its a single CAT6 run from it back to the customer switch.
