Planning the Powerline MU Network
The Powerline MU network consists of three major design considerations:
Canopy
wireless devices
Powerline MU
devices
Electrical distribution
within the building
3.1
CANOPY WIRELESS
Careful planning of the Canopy segment of your network is essential to successful
installation.
Measure distances carefully and examine the physical constraints around
the power line installations.
A site survey questionnaire is posted at
Install Canopy devices, including Backhauls (BH) as needed, Access Points (APs),
Cluster Management Modules (CMMs) as needed, and Subscriber Modules (SMs)
according to installation information provided in the
Canopy System User Guide
.
3.2
