Select one of the available modulation rates:
• 8x (256QAM MIMO)
• 6x (64QAM MIMO)
• 4x (16QAM MIMO)
• 2x (QPSK MIMO)
• 1x (½ Rate QPSK xRT)
• ¼x (¼ Rate QPSK xRT)
Frequency Settings
The Valid Frequencies for your Country Code selection are
displayed. Ensure that you use frequencies that comply
with the local country regulations.
TDD Split Frequency Mode This option lets you
configure separate frequencies for TX and RX. To configure
split frequencies, enable this option and select a different
RX frequency on each side of the link. This feature is useful
if both sides of the link do not have a common, clean
frequency. It is important for the RX frequency to be
clean; if different frequencies are clean on each end of the
link, select the clean RX frequency on each end.
AF-2X Split Frequency Settings
AF-3X Split Frequency Settings
AF-5X Split Frequency Settings
Note for AF-5X only: Split frequency mode is not
available in DFS bands because the RX frequency
must match the TX frequency to allow the receiver
to scan for DFS on the TX frequency. In regions
where both DFS and non-DFS frequencies are
available, enabling split frequencies will disable any
DFS band frequencies. In regions where only DFS
frequencies are available, there will be no option to
turn on split frequencies.
Frequency Enter a valid frequency. The current state is
displayed.
Note: The Master and Slave should have the same
Frequency setting.
Wireless Security
airFiber uses 128-bit, AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
encryption at all times.
Key Type Specifies the character format.
• HEX By default, this option uses hexadecimal
characters. 0-9, A-F, or a-f are valid characters.
• ASCII ASCII uses the standard English alphabet and
numeric characters (0-9, A-Z, or a-z).
Key Select the format of the MAC address.
• HEX Enter 16bytes (eight, 16-bit HEX values). You can
omit zeroes and use colons, similar to the IPv6 format.
The default is:
0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000
Note: The airFiber Configuration Interface
supports IPv6 formats excluding dotted quad and
“::” (double-colon) notation.
• ASCII Enter a combination of alphanumeric characters.
Using 128-bit SHA1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1), the
airFiberX radio hashes the ASCII key to create a 128-bit
key for AES.
