Abstract

An indoor to outdoor unit is described for placement outside of a building and adjacent to a structural part of the building. The unit has first antenna means (12) for communication with at least one indoor antenna (13) placed inside said building, the first antenna means having a reflector for reflecting radio signals towards the inside of the building. For instance, the first antenna means may be adapted to be located with respect to a wall of the building in such a way that a part of the wall is situated in the near-field region of the first antenna means. The first antenna means may be adapted for connection to a cable network. Alternatively; the unit may also have a second antenna means (10) for communication with at least one outdoor antenna (9) located outside the building. The first and second antenna means are adapted for attachment to or located in a housing. In operation some signals received by the second antenna means (10) from the one outdoor antenna (9) are transmitted to the first antenna means (12) and some signals transmitted from the second antenna means (10) to the one outdoor antenna (9) are received from the first antenna means (12) so that the unit acts as a repeater.
