cryptopay transmitter reach

I am installing a cryptopay tap plus system, and using an equipment room at the end of the carwash. We have to go the distance to the farthest bay, which is a reach of 5 bays plus a center control room plus an in-bay, effectively being a distance of 7 bays between the tap plus unit and the coordinator. I am wondering what the experience has been with this distance. I could run a cable to the center control room and mount the coordinator there, which reduces the distance to half. Thank you for your help.
 
My building is a Royal Building System. It is plastic forms that are poured with solid concrete and lots of rebar. I was VERY concerned about the signal getting to the Coordinator. Additionally, I was concerned about the electrical interference from the 3-phase 480vac and the huge step down transformer inside the equipment room. I did mount my coordinator high on the wall of the equipment room but it was probably unnecessary.
All of my devices communicate without any interference/problems.
I doubt you’ll have any issues
 
The devices talk to each other so there is really no issue with distance. You can mount the coordinator wherever you want but want it above water pipes or anything that may leak or sweat on it.
