Indicates whether the AirLink device has a strong connection to the wireless network
The value varies, depending on the network characteristics and the AirLink device.
See also LTE Signal Quality (RSRQ) and Signal Strength (RSSI).
Cell Info Provides cell information such as the Base Station Identity Code (BSIC), TCH, Received Signal
Strength Indicator (RSSI), Location Area Code (LAC), and the cell ID
For additional information, including cell info for LTE networks, see *CELLINFO2? on page 323.
Current Network
Operator
Provides the name of the Mobile Network Operator whose network the AirLink device is
