Managing Channel & Power Settings
The Chanel and Power Settings panel allows for either automatic or manual changes to frequency, channel width,
and power for either one or two channels.
B5/B5c
Auto Everything - Automatically configure channel, channel width and power to optimize performance based on
●
spectrum data.
Channel Width (MHz) - In Manual Mode, choose the number of link channels (single or dual) and the
●
channel width for each (Example: 2x80 MHz represents two channels with 80 MHz each, totaling 160 MHz).
Single channel options ending in "FD" allow for different transmit and receive frequencies on Channel 1 & 2,
respectively.
Maximum Channel Width (MHz) - Select the maximum channel width Auto Everything is allowed to use. The
●
decision for single or dual channel modes will be made automatically. For example, selecting 40 MHz as the
maximum channel width may result in 1x40 or 2x20 mode. Smaller channel widths may also be selected based
on RF conditions. Auto Everything is designed to maintain the highest link bandwidth while maintaining link
stability.
Center Frequency (1 & 2) - In Off (Manual) mode, select the center frequency of the channel used on the link. In
●
all modes, the center frequency represents the absolute center of the selected channel width without any
offset, and the center can be moved in 5 MHz increments. If Auto Everything is set to On, the Channel(s) will be
automatically set, and not editable. When configured as an AP in Multi Client (PTMP) mode, Center Frequency 1
is the primary channel.
Tx Power (1 & 2) - Set the desired transmit power level. The allowed options are determined by a combination
●
of country and chosen frequency. If Channel Width is set to 1xN MHz, Channel 2 will not be used. If Auto
Everything is set to On, Tx Power will be automatically set, and not editable. In "FD" mode, Power 1 and Power 2
represent transmit power on the local and remote sides, respectively. When configured as a client in Multi
Client (PTMP) mode, Tx power setting are obtained from the AP, but can be altered on the client radio.
Local and Remote Antenna Gain (dBi) - For connectorized radios, set the gain according to antenna
●
specifications and subtract out any cable/connector loss. Remote antenna gain is available only in PTP mode,
and not in Multi Client (PTMP) mode. These values will not be shown on radios with integrated antennas.
Channel Recommendations - List of channel widths, center frequencies, and Tx powers that Auto Everything
●
would choose in order of preference (if enabled).
