Local AP-ESSID:

This is the area in which the SSID is configured if a custom SSID

is desired. For multiple Host/AP deployments the SSID will be factory configured to
the following SSIDs (MAC Address and serial numbers are for example only):

Host/AP

SN

Host/AP

Hide SSID:

If the SSID should not be broadcast for other Clients to see it can be

hidden by selecting this box. The AP’s MAC address will still appear in AP lists but will
not show the SSID.

Country Code:

Select the country in which the system will be deployed. The radio

will then transmit under the legal operation for that particular regulatory domain.
Any restricted channels will no longer be available for static selection and power
output will also be tailored to the regulations of the local country. If using an
external antenna, use only the power output regulated per dB gain of the antenna.

Wireless Profile:

This is set to “NA” to show that the system is working to

IEEE802.11a and IEEE802.11n specifications (5Ghz operation and using MIMO
technology.) WESII does not support IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g.

Channel Spectrum Width:

Channel availability is based on the spectrum width.

With larger spectrum width comes additional throughput capability. With less
spectrum width, more channels are available, however with less throughput and
there is a greater chance of frequency bleedover.

Below is a chart to show the potential throughput based on spectrum width:
