Radio Mode
Outdoor Base / Outdoor Subscriber
If the Radio Mode is Outdoor Base, it is considered as AP.
If the Radio Mode is Outdoor Subscriber, is selected then it is a SU.
Service Set Identifier (SSID)
SSID is simply the technical term for a network name. The SSID is a case-sensitive text string
that can be as long as 32 characters consisting of letters and/or numbers. An SSID is publicly
visible. Within those rules, the SSID can be anything for quick identification of the network.
Country: India / 5 GHz
Band1 – 5100- 5350 MHz
Band2 – 5470- 5925 MHz
Operational Mode: 11AC
Bandwidth: 20/40/80MHz
Given the above options, the admin has the flexibility to select the bandwidth. In general,
2.4GHz radio can have a bandwidth of 20 MHz i.e. for short distances. A 5GHz radio can
have 40 MHz/ 80MHz bandwidth. Advantages of a 5 GHz with 40 MHz/ 80MHz bandwidth
are; it is tuned for faster speed; more data can be transferred and less signal interference.
Channel:
Several Wi-Fi Channels and their numbers were pre-defined to achieve the best
performance.
Bandwidth and Channel Parameters are available only in AP.
The default channel is 120(5600 MHz) when Outdoor base is selected in radio mode.
The SU after scanning should be updated automatically with the same parameters as
AP, this is possible only when SSID and Country parameters are same in both AP a SU.
