BreezeNET DS.11 Series User Manual
3-22
Basic Rate: The maximum rate of multicast, broadcast and control frames
transmissions. Multicast and broadcast transmissions are not acknowledged;
therefore there is a chance that such transmissions will not be properly
received without the possibility of using the acknowledgement mechanism for
retransmission. Therefore, it is recommended to use a lower rate for
transmission of broadcast, multicast and control frames, to increase the
probability that they will be received without errors. Enter the data rate at
which broadcast, multicast and control frames are transmitted. The valid
values are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbps. The default value is 2 Mbps.
NOTE:
The Basic Rate parameter should be changed only if you are sure that all units in the cell can handle the
defined rate. Use this parameter with caution, as it may bring the link down.
Power: The transmit power level. The possible values are -4, -2, 4, 6, 12, 14,
20, 24 dBm.
NOTE:
The Power setting should not exceed the maximum output allowed in the applicable regulatory domain
according to Table 3-1 on page 3-16.
