Signal
Indicates the strength of the radio signal received from client stations. Signal strength is expressed
in decibel milliwatt (dBm). The higher the number the stronger the signal.
Noise
Indicates how much background noise exists in the signal path between client stations and the
access device. Noise is expressed in decibel milliwatt (dBm). The lower (more negative) the
value, the weaker the noise.
SNR
Indicates the relative strength of the client station radio signals versus the radio interference
(noise) in the radio signal path.
In most environments, SNR is a good indicator for the quality of the radio link between the
client stations and the access device. A higher SNR value means a better quality radio link.
