1.The limiting factor is saturation of the receiver by the transmitter. When presented with a signal at a strength above the saturation point, the receiver cannot distinguish between pulses, though no hardware damage occurs.

2.Links longer than 30 km for the same link power budget are considered engineered links. Attenuation for such links needs to be less than the minimum
