
Wireless Network Name (SSID)
This wireless network name is shared among all associated devices in your wireless network.
Keep it identical on all those devices. Note that the SSID is case-sensitive and can not exceed
32 characters.

Broadcast SSID
Under AP mode, hiding network name is necessary when you are in a wireless environment that
may have potential risk. By disabling broadcast SSID, the STA can not scan and find IEEE
802.11n ZAC Wireless CPE, so that malicious attack by some illegal STA could be avoided.

802.11 Mode
The IEEE 802.11n ZAC Wireless CPE can communicate with wireless devices of 802.11a or
802.11a/n.

HT Protect
Enable HT (High Throughput) protect to ensure HT transmission with MAC mechanism. Under
802.11n mode, wireless client can be divided into HT STA and Non-HT STA, among which the
one with HT protect enabled gets higher throughput.

Frequency/Channel
Channel varies much as the available band differs from country to country.

Extension Channel
Only applicable to AP, AP Repeater, and 40MHz channel width) indicates the use of channel
bonding that allows the IEEE 802.11n ZAC Wireless CPE to use two channels at once. Two
options are available: Upper Channel and Lower Channel.

Channel Mode
Four levels are available: 5MHz, 10MHz, 20MHz and 40MHz. The last one can enhance data
throughput, but it takes more bandwidth, thus it might cause potential interference. Maximum
Output Power (per chain):
Specify the signal transmission power. The higher the output power is, the wider the signal can
cover, but the power consumption will be greater accordingly. The output power will vary
depending on each country
’s regulation.

Data Rate
Usually
“
Auto
” is preferred. Under this rate, the IEEE 802.11n ZAC Wireless CPE will
