• Move the base station to another location.
• Select the alternate operating band of the T7406.
It is important to keep in mind that, based on environmental characteristics, the T7406 may not be
the optimum solution for all users. If the desired level of mobility performance is not met, contact
your authorized Nortel distributor to discuss alternatives.
Environmental Layout Considerations
The following facility layouts are examples of reference building footprints for which the T7406 is
most suited.
1 The Storefront
• under 929 square meters/10,0000 square feet
• Open environments with few interior barriers
2 Office Facility
The T7406 can also be used in business with larger square footage and including an interior layout
that has a higher concentration of physical barriers. Full radio coverage at these facilities takes
more planning to work around possible barriers.
• Professional office
• Typically under 2,323 square meters/25,000
square feet.
• Usually mix of open and closed offices
• Typical office floor with elevator shaft and
utility rooms in core of facility.
Some transmission path loss will occur when the
base station and the handset are separated by
physical barriers, as represented by this core area.
The amount of path loss is dependent upon the
number of walls and type of material and density
of barriers utilized in the core area.
