Average measured RSSI
This field displays the Radio Signal Strength Indicator units and, in parentheses, the
power level as an average of the measurements that were collected throughout the
aiming period. Try for the highest power level that you can achieve at the least amount of
jitter. For example, if you achieve a power level of −75 dBm with a jitter level of 5, and
further refine the alignment to achieve a power level of −78 dBm with a jitter level of 2
or 3, the link is better because of the further refinement.
Average measured Jitter
This field displays Jitter as an average of the measurements that were collected
throughout the aiming period. In 1X operation, jitter values of 0 to 4 are acceptable. In 2X
operation, jitter values 0 to 9 are acceptable. In either mode, 0 to 15 is the range of
possible values that the Jitter field reports. Within the acceptable range, incremental
improvements in the jitter level achieved can significantly improve link quality where
power level is not significantly diminished by re-aiming.
Users
This is a count of the number of SMs registered to the AP you are aligning to.
Frequency
This field displays the frequency in MHz of the signal that was being received during the
aiming period.
ESN
This field displays the MAC address of the AP or BHM you are aligning to.
Color Code
This field displays the color code of the AP or BHM you are aligning to.
Backhaul
This field displays a 1 if the device you are aligning to is a BHM, and a 0 if the device you
are aligning to is an AP.
