There are several positions

1. Desktop mount

2. Partition or metal surface mount

3. Ceiling mounts (without any tools)

4. Wall mounts with screws

1. Desktop stand

EA-MARS can helps you to relocate your antennas to a better
and optimal position to receive and transmit signals.

6

2. Office partition or metal surface installation

EA-MARS is embedded with strong magnets to stick EA-MARS
to the metal walls or cabinets without extra tools or accessories.

Warning:

EA-MARS has 2 magnetic please keeps it away at least 6
inches from you PC in order not to crash the data or to make
other devices failed.

7

Step 1.

Please note there are 2 plastic fasteners on the bottom of the
base. Push the fasteners downward with your forefingers and
disassemble the bottom cover from the stand like the direction
shown in the illustration

Use forefinger to loose both the hooks and push UPWARDS
with both your thumbs

Push upwards hardly until a opening click sound is heard

8

Step 2.

Remove the bottom cover after both fasteners are released by
hands and turn the cover around. Re-assemble the cover by
clicking the cover back to position.

You can see 2 plastic hooks. These hooks could help you
flexible grabs onto the steel frames of your ceiling (see the
diagrams below).

4. Wall installations (With screws and tools)

You need to use tools to complete this installation

The distance between screw holes is about 6cm, try to measure
and match this range before fix your screws on the wall.

10

Screws installations

Lock the screw tightly and keep some margin spaces left (about
3 to 5mm) like the diagram below.

3mm

Therefore EA-MARS can be hanged onto the wall with both
screws.

11

The antennas on the right and left side are for signal reception and
should be set perpendicular (90 degrees) to each other. The central
one is for signal transmission and should be pulled up about 45
degree. Please see the illustration below.

About antenna angle adjustment

Please position place the antenna vertically to the horizontal
surface (ceiling or floor), since the omni-directional antennas

best signal coverage is 360°. Do not put the antenna

perpendicular to the wall.

12

Warning:

For better performance, both base stations and clients are
recommended to use EA-MARS with antennas
It should be no obstacles between the transmission areas. The
performance estimation is based on typical usage. The range is
varied with different site conditions.
