Link Mode Optimization: Optimizes the link behavior according to the type of traffic that will
be bridged.
TDD Synchronization Mode: Enables the TDD Synchronization feature (see Section
1103H5.2 for
basic description and Section
1104H14 for installation and configuration details).
Tx Max Power: This attribute controls the maximum transmit power the unit is permitted to
use when installing and executing the wireless link. The maximum setting for a particular
region or country is controlled by the License Key.
Ranging Mode: During installation, the wireless units perform automatic ranging. The
ranging mode allows the installer to control the behavior of the system’s automatic ranging
algorithms. The default value is 0 to 40 km
19F
20
(0 to 25 miles). If the installer is required to
install a link of greater than 40 km (25 miles) then the ranging mode attribute MUST be
configured to ‘0 to 100km’ (0 to 62 miles) or ‘0 to 200km’ (0 to 124 miles) mode depending on
the range of the link.
Target Range: Installers that know the range between the two wireless units to within ± 1 km
can use the target range mode. The main advantage of the target range mode is that it
reduces the time taken by the units to range. To use the target range mode the installer
MUST select Target Range as the ranging mode and enter the approximate range in km in
the Target range data entry field at both ends of the link.
Platform Variant: Chooses between an integrated unit or a connectorized unit that requires
an external antenna.
Frequency Band: This is for the 2.5 GHz product variant which operates in one of three
bands as described in Section
1105H5.5.
Channel Bandwidth: Users can choose a variable channel bandwidth for the available
spectrum. Values of 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz and 30 MHz can be selected.

If preferred PTP 600 Series Bridge range functions can be configured to operate in miles, see the
Properties page in Section 8.3.15.
