I am still in design stage of our non-profit apartment complex wireless project.
Questions I have are:
1. What is the highest dBi 120deg. sector can I use with uamplified 200mW access
point without breaking the law?
2. I wonder if I would be able to penetrate our stucture, so I could serve the
units on the other side of the building without doing any APs on the other side
(the light poles there belong to the city). What polarization should I use?
3. Is one 120deg sector enough to cover a building that is about 80feet away
from building that is 64'deep, 72'high, and 170'wide (and needs to be covered
corner to corner)?
Here is what needs to be penetrated (building is basicly 6 floors of open style
lofts):
200mW AP (in center of courtyard placed 12' high on the light pole)
120deg. sector

I have an satelite image of our property with boundaries and light poles marked
on it. Check it out.

Any ideas and advice would be greatly appreciated!
