Region Code A parameter that offers multiple fixed selections, each of which
automatically implements frequency band range for the selected region.
Units shipped to regions other than restrictions the United States must be
configured with the corresponding Region Code to comply with local
regulatory requirements.
Regulatory This field indicates whether the configured
Country Code
and radio
frequency are compliant with respect to their compatibility. 450 Platform
Family products shipped to the United States is locked to a Country Code
setting of “United States”. Units shipped to regions other than the United
States must be configured with the corresponding Country Code to comply
with local regulatory requirements.
DFS (Dynamic
Frequency Selection)
This field dynamically selects frequency based on detection of radar pulses.
Channel Frequency This field indicates the current operating center frequency, in MHz.
Channel Bandwidth This field indicates the current size of the channel band used for radio
transmission.
Cyclic Prefix OFDM technology uses a cyclic prefix, where a portion of the end of a
symbol (slot) is repeated at the beginning of the symbol to allow multi-
pathing to settle before receiving the desired data. A 1/16 cyclic prefix
means that for every 16 bits of throughput data transmitted, an additional bit
is used.
Frame Period This field indicates the current Frame Period setting of the radio in ms.
Encryption This field indicates the capability and the encryption configuration of the
device.
Color Code This field displays a value from 0 to 254 indicating the AP’s configured color
code. For registration to occur, the color code of the SM and the AP must
match. Color code is not a security feature. Instead, color code is a
management feature, typically for assigning each sector a different color
code.
Color code allows you to force a SM to register to only a specific AP, even
where the SM can communicate with multiple APs. The default setting for
the color code value is 0. This value matches only the color code of 0 (not all
255 color codes).
Max Range This field indicates the setting of the Max Range parameter, which
contributes to the way the radio transmits. Verify that the Max Range
parameter is set to a distance slightly greater than the distance between the
AP and the furthest SM that must register to this AP.
EIRP This field indicates the combined power level at which the AP will transmit,
based on the Country Code.
Temperature This field indicates the current operating temperature of the device board.
