Placing the gateway pod (GW: pod connected via Ethernet to a modem/router) in a central part of your business ensures that you are able to distribute your Plume network to all corners of your business!
By placing the Wi-Fi-connected pods on the interior walls of your business, you can take full advantage of Plume's omnidirectional radios and ensure a strong backhaul connection between pods. This also may help reduce the chance of your guests gaining physical access to the pods.
Remember that when placing Wi-Fi-connected pods the ideal distance to maintaining a strong backhaul connection is to place them 30-40 feet from one another if there are obstructions in between.

Unfortunately, it's not always possible to place your gateway pod in the center of your business due to the existing network cable installations or your business IT infrastructure needs.
Fortunately, Plume can still accommodate this using the below placement guide!
