Parameter

 

Description

 

 

 

Transmit Power Level

Specifies the preferred power level at which your client adapter

 

 

transmits. Although the adapter supports up to 100 mW, the transmit

 

 

power level that is actually used is limited to the maximum value

 

 

allowed by your country’s regulatory agency (FCC in the U.S., DOC in

 

 

Canada, ETSI in Europe, TELEC in Japan, etc.).

 

 

Options: Dependent on the radio band used and the power table

 

 

programmed into the client adapter; see the table below.

 

 

Default: The maximum power level programmed into the client adapter

 

 

and allowed by your country’s regulatory agency

 

 

 

 

 

 

Radio Band

Transmit Power Level

 

 

 

 

 

 

802.11b/g

10, 20, 30, 50, 63, or 100 mW

 

 

 

 

 

 

802.11a

10, 13, 20, 25, or 40 mW

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note The client adapter’s maximum transmit power level may be

 

 

lower when operating in 802.11g mode than when operating in

 

 

802.11b mode due to 802.11g-specific regulatory limitations in

 

 

some countries.

 

 

 

Note Reducing the transmit power level conserves battery power but

 

 

decreases radio range.
