- Page 4 Network Extender Range The coverage of the Network Extender will vary based on a number of factors including: The type of building it is being deployed within (e.g., building materials number of walls) The strength of the existing Verizon 4G LTE signal The Network Extender coverage radius will vary based the RF absorption or obstruction characteristics of environment it is used in.
- Page 5 Dense: Regular internal walls and high levels of clutter. Examples include hospitals and schools or buildings with complex floor plans and narrow hallways and passages. If your building has many internal concrete or metal walls then a Network Extender may not be suitable for you or you may require professional assistance for installation.
- Page 6 Single Network Extender Placement In the process of determining the placement of your Network Extenders, you also must determine how many Network Extenders you require. For health and safety reasons, the Network Extender should be placed in a location where people will not pass within 20cm (7.9 inches) of the antennas. The process for placing your Network Extender is as follows: Step 1: Determine the range of your Network Extenders from Table 1.
- Page 7 Step 2: Determine the placement of your Network Extender along the center axis of the building. If one Network Extender is sufficient for your entire building size, then it is a good idea to place it in a central location. Use the radius calculation as a guide to find the proper positioning from the building’s edges.
- Page 8 Dual Network Extender Placement If the building’s dimensions are larger than the radius of a single Network Extender; the following process will help determine how many Network Extenders you require. For health and safety reasons, the Network Extender should be placed in a location where people will not pass within 20cm (7.9 inches) of the antennas.

Number of 4G LTE Active Users supported (total) Estimated 4G device Population Supported Network Extender for (Idle Capacity) Enterprise units 120-200* 200-400* * Note: The number of supported Verizon Wireless devices will vary based on usage patterns of a location. The usage pattern of a location may itself vary depending on the time of day or during special events held at the location. - Page 14 To minimize this impact, it is recommended that the Network Extender not be placed closer than is necessary to external walls or windows, particularly where the walls and windows are close to busy thoroughfares. Proximity to Users The closer a user is to a Network Extender, the better the performance of the Network Extender and the better the user experience will be.
