Radio Signal SpecsRadio Signal Specs

Specs Definition Measure Unit Why Important?

Frequency Range The range of radio frequency which the signal is transmitting

MHz/GHz -Radio Signal frequency range has to match antenna’s frequency spec.

-Difference frequency range may have different interferences

Loss Loss of power in the radio signal

dB/dBm -Loss weakens the signal strength

-Use low loss cables

Transmit (Tx) Power

The power level of the signal being transmitted

mW/dBm -Higher the power, further the distance

-Power regulations in different countries

Receive (Rx) Sensitivity

The recognizable power level of the signal at the receiving end

dBm -Higher sensitivity, further the distance

-High gain antennas helps sensitivity

What is throughput?What is throughput?

Throughput is the actual data rate the device can transfer data.

In WLAN devices, throughput is roughly half of theoretical data rate (when bandwidth is not shared)

One should measure throughput to determine if actual data rate meets requirement.

What is multiple SSID? What is multiple SSID?

An SSID is similar to a wireless LAN port, wherein an SSID serves clients with the same SSID.

An AP with multiple SSIDs can allow clients with different SSIDs to connect to the AP (similar to devices connected to different ports on a switch)

Client SSID = HOME

Client SSID = GUESTAP
