Configuring the Xirrus Array
In a large office, or if multiple Arrays are in use, you should choose
Small
cells to achieve a higher data rate, since walls and other objects will not
define the cells naturally.
For additional information about cell sizes, go to
“Coverage and Capacity
Planning” on page 25
.

In the
Antenna Select
column, choose the antenna you want this radio to
use from the pull-down list. The list of available antennas will be different
(or no choices will be available), depending on the wireless mode you
selected for the radio.
The sample pull-down list shown here is for
an 11a radio. In cases where the configuration
of the Array limits the antenna choice (for
example, if no external antenna is available),
the Antenna Select column is greyed out.
