Usage
 — 
 
A Mesh Portal MAP can be configured to emit link 
calibration packets to 
assist with positioning the Mesh AP. A link 
calibration packet is an unencrypted 802.11 management packet of type 
Action. When enabled on an MAP, link calibration packets are sent at a 
rate of 5 per second.
The MP-620 is equipped with a connector to which an external RSSI 
meter can be attached during installation. When an RSSI meter is 
attached to an MP-620 and a calibration packet is received, the MP-620 
emits a voltage to the RSSI meter proportional to the received signal 
strength of the packet. This can aid in positioning the MP-620 where it 
has a strong signal to the Mesh Portal AP.
Only one radio on an MAP can be configured to send link calibration 
packets. Link calibration packets are intended to be used only during 
installation of MAPs; they are not intended to be enabled on a continual 
basis.
Examples
 —
