    In our example it is approximately 15.2 Mbps. 5. Simple configuration for establishing E1 radio link E1 radio link can be established only having InfiNet Wireless devices with IDU- 5000-E1SCR, IDU-5000-E1RJ indoor units. In our E1 radio link point-to-point simple configuration example we will establish e1 radio link as shown in figure 19b.

    “Antenna alignment with MINT Monitor” procedure because Link test is much better radio link testing tool then Mint Monitor. This is so because of the following reasons: ü With Link test tool you are getting much more testing statistics using only one command. Copyright © 2004-2009 by InfiNet Wireless Limited.
