How to Extend the Range of Your Wireless Video Transmitter

How to Extend the Range of Your Wireless Video Transmitter

Ok so you've got a Wind Fire wireless ad hoc network video transmitter, but sometimes the signal just isn't getting to where you need it. Don't worry! Here are a couple of easy hacks you can use to get a better signal and increase the range of your transmitter. Today, we will discuss what you can do to optimize the way in which you transmit video over wireless.

Before talking about how we can optimize the antenna placement and receive a stronger signal. 

The antenna is what it sends the signal and receives the signal to/from your wireless mesh network transmitter. In simple terms, those are the signals you want to be getting and this antenna is placed in just such a position that you receive best of it. Place this higher up away from things like walls or other electronics as well This will make the signal go farther and more powerful.

Another thing that can help is to use top-shelf coaxial cables, with very little signal loss. 

The coaxial cables which link the antenna to the transmitter. Signal loss caused by cheap, old, or low quality cables will decrease the transmission range. Some good quality cables going through to make sure you have the best signal strength.

If you require more range and a high-gain antenna is the intended option. 

High-gain antennas mesh network work better over longer distances than standard antennas. However, do check back if you want to switch antennas from a Wind Fire transmitter since compatibility could be an issue.

Also try minimizing any obstructions that may interfere with signal transmission. Walls, furniture or other electronics all can block the wireless signal between your Wi-Fi and smart TV. Simply place your transmitter and receiver in the same line of sight with lesser blockers in between. This will improve signal attenuation and range.
