Netgear WC7500 - ProSAFE® Wireless Controller 사용자 설명서

AirQual, short for air quality, lets you display WiFi channel utilization levels and detect 

non-WiFi interference. One access point can monitor the AirQual for a profile group.

AirQual can be configured on a WAC740 access point only. However, 

the WAC740 access point can monitor the WiFi channel utilization 
and interference for a profile group, independent of the access point 
models that serve the profile group.

AirQual provides the following services:

Option to display WiFi channel utilization levels. AirQual reports the utilization levels 
for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. You can monitor these levels in real time, enabling you 
to see which channels are overutilized and how you can improve channel deployment. 
You can also configure alerts that are raised when channel utilization increases above a 
specific threshold or channel quality falls below a specific threshold.

Non-WiFi interference detection. This feature is also referred to as channel quality. The 
throughput of a WiFi network can be affected by the presence of non-WiFi interference 
sources such as microwave ovens and cordless phones. AirQual can detect non-WiFi 
interference and notify you through alerts. AirQual can detect up to 17 different non-WiFi 
interference devices, including Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and analogue WiFi 
cameras.

You can configure AirQual for the basic profile group. One WAC740 access point can 
monitor the WiFi channel utilization and interference for the entire basic profile group.
