Figure 181: Link Capacity Test tab of AP, example
The Link Capacity Test page allows you to measure the throughput and efficiency of the RF link
between two modules. Many factors, including packet length, affect throughput. The Link
Capacity Test tab contains the settable parameter Packet Length with a range of 64 to 1522 bytes.
This allows you to compare throughput levels that result from various packet sizes.
For example, the same link was measured in the same time frame at a packet length of 64 bytes.
The results are shown in Figure 182.
