4.10.2.1 Show
Select this option to view the relevant parameters of the selected Antenna. The
displayed information is the same as described in Show Summary (Section 4.10.1)
above.
4.10.2.2 Update
This option is applicable only for external Antennas. Select this option to
configure/modify the following parameters of the selected Antenna:
Antenna Gain (dBi)
Beam Width (degrees)
Antenna Polarization
4.10.2.2.1 Antenna Gain (dBi)
The gain of the antenna in dBi.
The range is from 0 to 40 dBi.
The defaults is 14 dBi.
4.10.2.2.2 Beam Width (degrees)
The antenna’s beamwidth in degrees.
Available values are 60, 90, 120 and 360 degrees.
NOTE
For a Dual Slant antenna only Antenna 1 should be configured. The read-only configuration of
Antenna 2 will be copied from the configuration of Antenna 1.
NOTE
For units using a Band Name with limitation on the maximum allowed EIRP, the configuration range
for Antenna Gain depends on the currently configured values for Tx Power and Bandwidth. For
more details refer to
“Tx Power” on page 126.
For such units using two antennas per sector, the gain of both antennas must be set to the same
value.
