SU Ranging Test

This test reports the SU’s distance from the AP in miles, received signal strength for uplink and downlink, and SU Tx

Power. Use a link budget calculator to analyze results.

Advanced Setup Page

The Advanced Set up page includes several important parameters including RF TX Power, RF RX Threshold, Target RSSI from SU (AP only), and Channel Table.

RF TX Power: Sets the conducted RF power output of the radio. Highest allowable setting is 26 dBm. Lowest setting is –4 dBm. This value does not include antenna gain. A higher number is more powerful.

RF RX Threshold: Sets the receive threshold of the radio. The radio will not process signals received below this level, so it is very useful for interference mitigation. For a smaller radius of operation use a higher threshold (-75 is higher than -80).

Target RSSI from SU: Used by the powerleveling process to automatically adjust the RF output power level of all SUs in a sector so the signal strength from each SU as measured at the AP will be roughly equal.

Channel Table: Assigns channel numbers to actual frequencies of operation. Default settings allow the largest number of channels (4) within the band, while still maintaining 6 MHz channel spacing.
