HT20 for 20 MHz operation, HT40 for 40 MHz operation,
or HT80 for 80 MHz operation in the 5 GHz band.
Note: If the AP is part of a Zero Handoff WLAN
Group, then the Channel settings cannot be
changed.

Select VHT20 for 20 MHz operation, VHT40 for 40MHz
operation, or VHT80 for 80 MHz operation in the

Transmit Power By default the transmit power is set to
Auto. You can also manually select the following:
• High The highest TX power available.
• Medium Halfway between High and Low.
• Low The lowest TX power available.
• Custom Custom setting that you specify in the field
provided.
• Antenna Gain (Only available for Outdoor models)
Specify the antenna gain.
Minimum RSSI Disabled by default. Select this option
and enter a minimum threshold (we recommend a value in
this range: -70 to -90 dBm). For UniFi, RSSI is synonymous
with SNR. If the client signal falls below the specified
threshold, then the AP kicks out the client, allowing it to
reconnect with a more suitable AP.
Note: If the AP is part of a Zero Handoff WLAN
Group, the Minimum RSSI setting cannot be changed.
