The
Channel
column shows on which channel each IAP (radio) is
operating. Channel selections are made on the
IAP Settings
page
from a pull-menu. To avoid co-channel interference, adjacent radios
should not be using adjacent channels.
z
The
Cell Size
column indicates which cell size setting is currently
active for each radio—either small, medium, large or manually
defined by you. The cell size of a radio is a function of its transmit
power and determines the radio’s overall coverage. Cell sizes are
defined on the
IAP Settings
page. For additional information about
cell sizes and the importance of planning for and defining the
optimum sizes for your Array, go to
“Coverage and Capacity
Planning” on page 25
.

The
Associated Users
column informs you how many users are
currently associated with each radio. The high-capacity XS-3900 can
handle up to 64 concurrent users per individual IAP radio (1024 or
960 users per Array when the monitor is enabled).
