Cooper Bussmann BU-245U-E Wireless Ethernet & Device Server User Manual
This time enter the Iperf command to start the client communication to the server.“Iperf –c <IP address of Server PC> -w 65535. See Figure 2
Figure 2
This will run a test over the Wi-Fi Link to the Server PC and report back results as seen in Figure 3.
These results show the Bandwidth (Throughput) of the test as 16.2Mbits/sec.
Figure 3
Using the Theoretical throughput calculations in Table 1 you can compare the results with the measured to give an indication of the difference
between expected and measured. Remembering that the theoretical calculations are best case possible results.

Table 1
In the command line for the Client mapping we established the Server IP address followed by the –w 65535, -w is the window size and the
maximum TCPIP window size is 65535bytes.
Another entry that can be added is –t <seconds> to run the test for a specific time period. Example of this is in figure 5 where the same test is
run for 30 seconds.
