Question
:
I thought the N.Power has 30dBm output power, why do I only see 20dBm on
the Tx Output Power option?
Answer
: The maximum output power for N.Power at the antenna connector is about
1watt (30dBm). However, it is limited to 20dBm in EU and 23dBm in the U.S.
for compliance with regulations. Nevertheless, unlike normal 11n routers
that typically provide less than 15dBm output power in 11n mode, the
N.Power can provides up to 19dBm(EU) and 22dBm(FCC) in 11n mode. It
means greater coverage in 11n mode.
If you are living in countries that allow use of 30dBm output power, you can
change the Regulatory Domain to South America. Please be sure it is legal
in your country, do not use the wrong regulatory domain.
