How to Position Multiple Nebula APs

To select the best position to minimize signal interference for multiple Nebula APs, do the following:

1 Avoid positioning the Nebula APs too close to each other. This can cause interference.

2 In case it may be necessary to position Nebula APs in direct line of sight of each other, adjust the transmission power of each Nebula AP so that they are not overlapping each other. This can reduce signal interference. Go to Site-wide > Configure > Access points > Radio settings and select the Deployment selection and Maximum output power. See Radio Settings for more information.

3 Enable DCS (Dynamic Channel Selection) to let the Nebula APs scan the best channel to use. This will minimize co-channel interference between the Nebula APs. Go to Site-wide > Configure > Access points > Radio settings > DCS setting.

When DCS client aware is enabled in Site-wide > Configure > Access points > Radio settings > DCS setting and there are WiFi clients connected to the Nebula AP, the channel will not be changed after a DCS scan.

4 Configure the Nebula APs in Site-wide > Configure > Access points > Radio settings > DCS setting to operate on non-overlapping channels.

• For the 2.4 GHz channel deployment, select Manual. Then, select the Channel IDs 1, 6, 11.

• For the 5 GHz channel deployment, select Manual. Then, select the Channel IDs 36 to 165.

The Channel IDs available will depend on your Country field selection.
