Site Survey Page
The site survey function measures overall noise floor as well as in-band noise containing data packets. Noise is reported
in terms of average and peak dBm for the period tested. The user specifies duration of the test in minutes as well as the
antenna port.
In this example the site survey function was performed for 1 minute on the vertical polarity. The lower band (5250
5340 Mhz) is reported to be relatively clean with a noise floor in the range of 97 to –98 dBm. The noise floor in the
upper band (5735 – 5835 MHz) is higher and ranges from –58 dBm (at 5735 Mhz) to –90 dBm (at frequency 5775 MHz.
In this example, channel 19 is the noisiest and should be avoided.
