Signal Strength

Data Rate

This indicator displays a description of the signal strength from the Wireless Access Point connection in real time (None, Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good, and Excellent).

SNR (Signal Noise Ratio) is a measure of the relative strength of a wireless RF connection. Given this value and the link quality above, you can determine the noise level component of the SNR. For example, if signal strength is high but the link quality is low, then the cause of the link degradation is noise. However, if signal strength is low and link quality is low the cause would simply be signal strength.

The data rate (in Mbps) at which the panel is currently communicating with the target WAP.

Note: Data rates for 802.11b communication are: 1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbps.

Wireless Security Page

The options on the Wireless Security page allow you to select from the wireless security methods supported by the NXA-WC80211GCF Wi-Fi card. These security methods incorporate WPA, WPA2, and EAP technology (some of which require the upload of unique certificate files to a target panel).

Refer to the Appendix B - Wireless Technology section on page 169 for more further information.
