Each tab of the airFiber Configuration Interface contains
network administration and monitoring tools. Click the
Tools drop‑down list at the top right corner of the page.
Align Antenna
Use the Align Antenna tool to point and optimize the
antenna in the direction of maximum link signal. (See
“Using the airFiber Configuration Interface” on page
14 for more details.) The Antenna Alignment window is
designed to refresh every 250 milliseconds.
Chain 0/1 Signal Strength Displays the absolute power
level (in dBm) of the received signal for each chain.
Note: If “Overload” is displayed to indicate an
overload condition, identify and eliminate any
source of strong in‑band interference.
Remote Chain 0/1 Signal Strength Displays the absolute
power level (in dBm) of the received signal for each chain
of the remote airFiber radio.
Max Signal Displays the maximum signal strength (in
dBm). To adjust the range of the Max Signal meter, use
the slider or manually enter the new value. If you reduce
the range, the color change will be more sensitive to
signal fluctuations, indicating the offset of the maximum
indicator value and the scale itself.
