Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Features
Maximum Ratio Combining
The radio modules use three receivers to support maximum ratio combining (MRC) to enhance receiver
performance. MRC is a technique that combines the signals from multiple receivers in a manner to
optimize the signals. MRC can provide up to 3 dB of increased receive signal strength in all modes of
operation.
Antennas Supported
Table 1-1 lists the supported access point antennas.
Warning The access point, antennas, and all interconnected equipment including the associated LAN
connections must be located indoors within the same building. Statement 375
Note The access point has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below and having a maximum
gain of 10 dBi for 2.4 GHz and 6 dBi for 5 GHz. Antennas not included in this list or having a higher
gain are strictly prohibited for use with the access point. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
Note To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be chosen so
that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than required for successful
communication.
