2.1 Positioning the A/V Adapter
The Wireless USB A/V Adapter is designed for two possible mounting options:
Simple table placement – the Audio/Video Base (A/V Base) is placed on a flat horizontal
surface, and the Device Adapter is connected at 90 degrees to the base so that it is
vertical.
Vertical mounting – the A/V Base is fastened to a wall, a projector, or behind a display
screen, and the Device Adapter is connected so that it is flat with the mounting surface,
with the Device Adapter pointing upwards.
Note: For best performance, it is recommended to always position the Device Adapter
vertically so that it is pointing upwards.
