Assumptions For The Ap1522 Range Calculator; Assumptions For The Ap1552 Range Calculator - Cisco Mesh Access Points Deployment Manual

Assumptions for the AP1522 Range Calculator

• To view the mesh range, enter the show mesh config command.
Assumptions for the AP1522 Range Calculator
• The AP1522 Range Calculator has been edited to stay within limitations for Tx power and EIRP under
• When you use the AP1522 Range Calculator, available power levels change based upon the regulatory
• Rx sensitivity in 2.4 GHz is the composite sensitivity of all three Rx paths. That is, MRC is included in
• You can choose only the channels that the access point is certified for.
• You can select only valid power levels.

Assumptions for the AP1552 Range Calculator

• The AP1552 Range Calculator has been edited to stay within limitations for Tx power and EIRP under
• All three antenna ports must be used for external antenna models of 1552 for effective performance.
• The Tx power is the total composite power of both Tx paths.
• Rx sensitivity is the composite sensitivity of all three Rx paths. That is, MRC is included.
• The AP1552 Range Calculator assumes that ClientLink (Beamforming) is switched on.
• You can select a different antenna than the two that are available by default. If you enter a high gain
• You can choose only the channels that the access point is certified for.
• You can only select only valid power levels.
