WIT2410

2.3.5. Co-Existing with 802.11b Networks

In some cases, if a WIT2410-based network is located in close proximity to an 802.11b

network, the WIT2410-based network can interfere with the 802.11b network. To avoid

causing this interference, the WIT2410 radio supports a selection of hopping patterns that

avoid the various 802.11b direct sequence channels. These limited band hopping patterns

allow WIT2410-based networks to be used with 802.11b networks without impacting the

performance of the 802.11b networks. The hopping pattern is selected using the pe

command. Please refer to the section 5.3 Protocol Commands for details.

2.3.6. European Union Settings

When operating the WIT2410 in France, a limited frequency mode must be selected. pe

values of 5, 6 or 7 may be used. To select the limited frequency band pe = 5, at the >

configuration mode prompt enter:

pe5<CR>

Save this setting by typing:

m><CR>

The limited frequency operation will take effect immediately and will be saved into

memory for use when power is cycled.

Use of the WIT2410 within the European Union is limited to a maximum transmit power

including antenna gain of 20dBm. If gain antennas are to be used, the low power setting

of the WIT2410 must be selected. This setting sets the transmit power at the antenna

connector to 10dBm. In this setting a maximum of 10dB of antenna gain may be used. To

select low power mode, at the > configuration mode prompt enter:

wp0<CR>
