Attribute
Meaning
Transmit Power
This value represents the combined power of the BHM’s two
transmitters.
Nations and regions may regulate transmit power. For example
PTP 450 modules are available as connectorized radios, which
require the operator to adjust power to ensure regulatory
compliance.
The professional installer of the equipment has the responsibility
to:
Maintain awareness of applicable regulations.
Calculate the permissible transmitter output power for the
module.
Confirm that the initial power setting is compliant with national
or regional regulations.
Confirm that the power setting is compliant following any reset
of the module to factory defaults.
External Gain
This value needs to correspond to the published gain of the
antenna used to ensure the radio will meet regulatory
requirements.
Receive Quality
Debug
To aid in link performance monitoring, the BHM and BHS now
report the number of fragments received per modulation (i.e.
QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM, 256-QAM) and per channel (polarization).
Due to CPU load, this slightly degrades the packet during per
second processing.
