Basic Wireless Settings
In this section, configure the basic wireless settings, such
as wireless mode, link name, country code, frequencies,
output power, speed, and gain.
Wireless Mode
By default, the Wireless Mode is
Slave
. You
must configure one airFiber AF-5 to
Master
because each
PtP link must have one
Master
.
Link Name
Enter a name for your PtP link.
Country Code
Each country has its own power level and
frequency regulations.
To ensure the airFiber AF-5 operates
under the necessary regulatory compliance rules, you must
select the country where your device will be used
. The
frequency settings and output power limits will be tuned
according to the regulations of the selected country. For
details, refer to this table,
“Frequency Ranges and Power
Levels per Country/Region” on page 46
.
This radio is restricted to use with a license and to use only in
certain EU countries or geographical areas of EU countries.

Duplex
Select
Half Duplex
or
Full Duplex
. Half-duplex
operation provides more frequency planning options at
the cost of higher latency and throughput. (Half-duplex
mode allows communication in one direction at a
time, alternating between transmission and reception.)
Full-duplex operation provides the highest throughput
and lowest latency; however, you have fewer frequency
management options. (Full-duplex mode allows
communication in both directions simultaneously.)
Note:
For
Half Duplex
mode (default), the
TX
and
RX
Frequencies
on the same airFiber AF-5 can be the
same or different to suit local interference. For
Full
Duplex
mode, the
TX
and
RX Frequencies
on the same
airFiber AF-5 should be different.
Channel Bandwidth
Select the appropriate channel size:
10
,
20
,
30
,
40
, or
50
MHz
.
Output Power
Defines the maximum average transmit
output power (in dBm) of the airFiber AF-5. To specify the
output power, use the slider or manually enter the output
power value. The transmit power level maximum is limited
according to country regulations.
