combining both data and power needs to be run to each HotSpotPA router.
Built-in directional and omnidirectional antennas on HotSpotPA's HP-series Ubiquiti routers provide
the maximum transmit power permitted under FCC regulations.
WiFi hotspot coverage area for the PicoStation2 HP and NanonStation2 Ubiquiti routers is
as large as 15 to 20 acres per router.
Multiple Ubiquiti routers with HotSpotPA firmware can be daisy-chained wirelessly to provide easy expansion of your WiFi coverage area.
