Table 67 SM Radio Configuration attributes (Standard WiFi mode)
Attribute Meaning
General
Radio Mode This parameter controls the function of the device All ePMP devices may be
configured to operate as an Access Point (AP), Subscriber Module (SM) or as a
Spectrum Analyzer.
Subscriber Module
Mode
This parameter controls the wireless mode of operation of the SM.
TDD: The SM is operating in the proprietary TDD mode and will only connect to
another ePMP Access Point.
Standard WiFi: The SM is operating in the Standard 802.11n WiFi mode and will
be able to connect to any Access Point operating in standard 802.11n WiFi mode.
ePTP Slave: The SM is operating as a Slave in point-to-point mode. The AP and
the system do not support GPS Synchronization in this mode but are able to provide
significantly lower latency than other modes. QoS (MIR and traffic priority)
capability and Link Quality/Capacity indicators are not available in this mode.
Fallback Country The SM automatically inherits the Country Code setting of the AP (except for US-
locked devices).
Fallback Country is used by the SM if the AP does not provide a Country Code to
the SM during registration and affect the radios in the following ways:
Maximum transmit power limiting (based on radio transmitter power plus
configured antenna gain)
DFS operation is enabled based on the configured country code, if applicable
Frequency selection is based on local regulatory limits
Length Unit The unit of measurement used for configuring Distance to AP.
Subscriber Module Configuration
Distance to AP In Standard WiFi mode, this parameter represents cell coverage radius. SMs outside
the configured radius will not achieve optimal throughput. It is recommended to
configure Distance to AP to match the actual physical maximum range of the
farthest subscriber. This must be configured to match the range of the farthest
subscriber on all SMs under the AP regardless of their respective distance from the
AP.
Preferred AP List
Preferred APs The Preferred AP List is comprised of a list of up to 16 APs to which the SM
sequentially attempts registration. For each AP configured, if authentication is
required, enter a Pre-shared Key associated with the configured AP SSID.
