Maximum link length
Use maximum link length selection combo box to select an appropriate maximum link
distance. Choose one of the following alternatives from the combo box:
500 m: Use this setting for point-to-point link deployments where the other end is
located
close to the access point, from distances of 500 m to 3000 m
7 km: Use this setting for point-to-point link deployments where the other end is
located max 7 km from the access point
15 km: Use this setting for point-to-point link deployments where the other end is
located max 15 km from the access point
25 km: Use this setting for point-to-point link deployments where the other end is
located max 25 km from the access point
Set the RTS threshold
This value determines the maximum packet size allowed before the RTS/CTS handshaking
protocol takes effect. To avoid packet loss when multiple stations/slaves are sending
packets to an AP/master, the RTS/CTS protocol will be activated whenever a packet
exceeds the specified threshold. A threshold value of 1 implies automatic RTS/CTS. Values
in the range {1-2346} are supported. To change the RTS threshold, enter the new value in
the RTS threshold text box and click the OK button.
Set the Fragmentation threshold
In a noisy radio environment, packet fragmentation is used to split large frames to smaller
frames to minimize the decrease in network capacity. If the size of a frame exceeds the
fragmentation threshold, the frame will be fragmented into small frames. Values in the
range {256-2346} are supported. To change the Fragmentation threshold, enter the new
value in the Fragmentation threshold text box and click the OK button.
Suppress/Enable SSID broadcast
This pair of radio buttons indicates whether the SSID is broadcast over the wireless
network. Disabling SSID broadcast can increase wireless network security. Click the
appropriate radio button to enable or disable SSID broadcast and click the OK button.
Defining the antenna gain
Enter the gain of the antenna (for example, 22) in use in this field.
Integrated antenna
Integrated antenna is a 23 dBi gain panel antenna. After you have selected Integrated
antenna from combo box (Integrated/external), write the antenna gain “23” to Antenna
Gain input value in the related text box.
External antenna
External antennas of varying gain levels can be used. We recommend using Airspan PlanAir
antennas only. The gain of Airspan PlanAir access antennas are typically between 12-22
dBi. Write the antenna gain value into the related text box.
Note on transmit power limits
When using external antennas, make sure that the maximum EIRP power does not exceed
the applicable power limitations set by the national radio legislation. Check applicable
maximum radio transmit power + antenna combinations from Appendix 5 of the manual
where equipment details are shown.
