Operation - Radio – Radio Status
The Radio Status page shows the wireless parameters of the link. Parameters displayed are:
• Transmit Power:
Transmit power is only displayed in dBm, but the settings available are limited to
“High / Medium / Low”, as in the table below:
Tx Power Setting
QPSK (700Mbps max)
Nominal Average Tx Power
into Antenna
8PSK (1Gbps)
Nominal Average Tx Power
into Antenna
High
+7.5dBm (FCC) and +6 dBm (Rest of World)
+4 dBm
Medium
+3 dBm
-1 dBm
Low
-5 dBm
-5 dBm
• RSSI (dBm): Received power at the antenna port (inside the ODU).
• Vector Error (dB): This is a measure of the signal quality, and should ideally be lower (more negative)
than -10dB (the exact value may vary over time).
• MWU Temp (Celsius): This shows the operating temperature of the microwave unit inside the radio
• Air Frame Error Ratio: This shows the % error rate over the air
• Ethernet Rx / Tx (Mbps): This shows the user traffic rate on the Ethernet interface
For each parameter, the local side of the link displays values for the Minimum, Mean, Maximum and Current,
while the remote side of the link only displays the Current parameter value. The values may be reset by
pressing the “Reset” button (which is useful after a power outage event, for example). The refresh speed can

pressing the “Reset” button (which is useful after a power outage event, for example). The refresh speed can
be increased by typing in a smaller number of seconds, as desired, into the “Page Refresh Interval” box, and
then pressing the “Change” button.
