Figure 11. RF Link Min/Max Received Signal Quality History

The received power quality level (MIN and MAX) represents the minimum and maximum values of received signal quality levels in 24-hour or 15-minute increments, and is displayed as a numerical value from 0 to 100, with 0 corresponding to poor signal quality and 100 corresponding to exceptional signal quality.

Radio links with consistently high MIN and MAX numbers should not experience interference. Radio links with a large difference between MIN and MAX numbers could be experiencing fading, reflections, or intermittent interference or installation problems such as loose connectors, damaged coax cable, water contaminated feedlines, or damaged lightning arrestors. Radio links with consistently low MIN and MAX numbers may be experiencing interference, low receive levels, or installation problems. If this is the case, examine the RF LINK MIN/MAX RECEIVED POWER HISTORY. High received power numbers with low received signal quality numbers indicate interference, while low received power numbers with low received signal quality numbers indicate low receive levels or installation problems.
