• The range is 0 to 35 dB.
• A 5.4-GHz SM or BH with an integrated antenna has a Net Antenna Gain of 17 dB.
• The antenna sold with the connectorized 5.4 GHz AP has a gain of 18 dB and cable
loss of approximately 1 dB, giving a Net Antenna Gain of 17 dB.
• A 4.9 GHz SM or BH with an integrated antenna has a Net Antenna Gain of 17 dB.
• The antenna sold with the connectorized 4.9 GHz AP has a gain of 18 dB and cable
loss of approximately 1 dB, giving a Net Antenna Gain of 17 dB.
• Any radio using DFS will use the Net Antenna Gain to appropriately adjust sensitivity
to radar signals. The use of DFS is determined by the Region Code setting on the
Configuration => Home page.
• The Auto-TPC used by the PMP 400 Series system takes into account the Net
Antenna Gain so as not to exceed national or regional EIRP limits.
Procedure for setting the Net Antenna Gain
1. If using a BH or SM with an integrated antenna, or a connectorized AP with the
connectorized antenna sold with it, leave the Net Antenna Gain on the Configuration
=> Radio page set to the factory default of 17 dB.
2. If using another antenna, set the Net Antenna Gain to the gain of the antenna minus
the loss in coaxial cable and connectors.
IMPORTANT!
Ensure the Net Antenna Gain is set correctly. Setting it low or high can
lead to either a system overly sensitive to DFS events or a system not
transmitting at its full legal power.
4.6 NETWORK CONTROL PARAMETERS
Parameters for High Priority/DiffServ, NAT, DHCP, VLAN, MIR, and CIR are configured the same
as they are in standard Canopy. The operator may (or may not) want to take advantage of the
higher possible MIR to provide greater bandwidth to a given SM.
4.7 FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION
PMP 400/430 and PTP 200 Series radios use FEC (Forward Error Correction) to extend the
range of the modules. They use Reed-Solomon error correction optimized at 3/4 coding. The
coding rate is not settable by the operator.
