Solving Overlap Issues; Access Point Requirement Considerations For A Radio - Avaya Communication Server 1000 Installation And Commissioning Manual

Solving overlap issues

To resolve overlap issues, reassign channels to the APs or relocate the APs. Like channels
require 15–20dBm separation. See
Figure 6: b radio assignment
For more information about overlap, see the AP vendor documentation.

Access point requirement considerations for a radio

Most of the design considerations for the b radio, also apply to cases where the a radio is used.
However, the adjacent APs and channel interference of the 802.11a radio operates in the 5
Ghz frequency and provides 12 non-overlapping, non-interfering channels. For example, in
the United States regulatory domain there are 3 U-NNI bands—lower, middle, and upper. Each
of which are with a different operating frequency range and with different maximum allowed
transmit power level.
The following table shows the different operating frequency rand and different maximum
transmit power level.
