Configuration MP.11-R Installation and Management
Interface Parameters
80
NOTE: The additional sensitivity is provided with the impact of using twice as much spectrum and thus increasing the
opportunity of interference and decreased ability for system collocation. Generally, Turbo mode is not
recommended except when the extra sensitivity is absolutely required.
• Lower Frequency Edge Filter(in MHz): This parameter is used to configure Low Frequency Edge Filter in MHz. By
default, the Low Frequency Edge Filter value is 0.This parameter is applicable in 11a mode only.
• Upper Frequency Edge Filter(in MHz): This parameter is used to configure High Frequency Edge Filter in MHz. By
default, the High Frequency Edge Filter value is 10,000.This parameter is applicable in 11a mode only.
NOTES:
• If you enter an invalid value for Edge Frequency, the device takes its default value. Lower Frequency Edge
value should always be less than the Upper Frequency Edge value.
• Use the above Lower and Upper Frequency Edge Filters to restrict the available frequency band. For e.g.: If
you configure the Lower and Upper Edge Frequency Filter as 5700MHz and 5800MHz, then the list of
frequency channels is restricted to 142 (5710), 146(5730), 150(5750), 154(5770), 158(5790).
• Frequency Channel: The frequency channel indicates the band center frequency the unit uses for communicating
with peers. This frequency channel can be set in several ranges, depending upon regulatory domain. Refer to Country
Codes and Channels for channelization information. For countries in which DFS is not required, the Frequency
Channel list displays only the channels and frequencies allowed for the selected country.
In countries and bands in which DFS is required, Frequency Channel is not configurable. Instead the channel is
auto-selected by the DFS process.
On 5054-R/-LR World units, if All Channels 5 GHz is selected in the Country drop-down menu on the Configure >
System page, any channel in the 5 GHz range is manually selectable.
• DFS Backup Channel Status: This field appears only if a US-DFS Country is selected from the Configure >System
page. The device operates in channel 149 when all channels are blacklisted.
• Multicast Rate: The rate at which data is to be transferred. This drop down box is unavailable when DDRS is
enabled.
The default multicast rate for the unit is 6 Mbps. The SU must never be set to a lower data rate than the BSU, because
timeouts will occur at the BSU and communication will fail.
Selections for multicast rate are shown in the following table:
• Channel Bandwidth: This field is used to change the bandwidth. Values are 5 MHz, 10 MHz, or 20 MHz, as well as
40 MHz when Turbo mode is enabled (US Non-DFS and All Channels 5 GHz (A5) only; 5054-R only). Change the
channel bandwidth of the unit that is remote to you first, and reboot the unit. Then change the channel bandwidth of
the unit to which you are directly connected.
NOTE: The 5 MHz channel bandwidth is not available when the selected country is UNITED STATES DFS.
