Link Tab

This tab provides feedback on the quality of the established link. For the BASE, the GUI provides two
subtabs—a Chart and a List (selected by tabs in the lower left of the window).
Chart
The Link Chart provides both graphical and textual feedback on channel error rates.

Table 3: Link Chart View Description

Reasonable connections exhibit the following metrics:

Phy mode = 64QAM

Power > -80dBm

greater than 10 dBm separation between Power and Noise
Note: The first metric reported in both fields 2 and 4 gives bandwidth utilization and availability,
respectively (e.g. here, Downlink utilization is 0.04 Mbps and availability is 5.31 Mbps).
