Radio Channels and Maximum Transmit Power
Radio Channels and Maximum Transmit Power
The Mobility Point (MP) access point is designed to meet the Institute for Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standard for wireless LANs. Table 1 on page 4 lists the frequencies, operating
channels, and maximum power allowed for 802.11a and 802.11b/g radio operation in each country for
which the MP access point is designed for use.
Once you designate a country of operation for the MP access points in your network, by selecting a country
code with the RingMasterâ„¢ tool suite, Web View application, or the command-line interface (CLI) on the
MX switch, the software limits your selection of radio frequency band, operating channels, and transmit
power to those permissible in that country.
The maximum transmit power listed in Table 1 on page 4 is the Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP)
and is calculated as follows:
Transmit Power – Cable Attenuation + Antenna
Warning! High voltage. This situation or condition can cause injury due to electric shock.
Warning! Radiation. This situation or condition can cause injury due to improper handling of
fiber-optic equipment.
Caution! This situation or condition can lead to data loss or damage to the product or other
property.
Note. This information is of special interest.
Note. In the European countries listed in Table 1 on page 4, you must use Trapeze Networks
products that are operating in the 5-GHz band indoors only.
Note. The maximum transmit power you can configure on any Trapeze Networks radio is the
maximum allowed for the country in which you plan to operate the radio or one of the following
values if that value is less than the country maximum: on an 802.11a radio, 11 dBm for
channel numbers less than or equal to 64, or 10 dBm for channel numbers greater than 64; on
an 802.11b/g radio, 16 dBm for all valid channel numbers for 802.11b, or 14 dBm for all valid
channel numbers for 802.11g.
