Configuring Radio Transmit (Tx) Power

Based on the configured mode, channel, channel plan, and channel width for the specific antenna, the professional installer must enter the corresponding Transmit Power (Tx Power) for the desired Radio using the ExtremeWireless Assistant.

  1. Log into the Wireless Assistant.
  2. From the top menu, click AP.
    The Wireless AP screen displays.
  3. Click the AP button in the left pane, then in the Wireless AP list, select the Wireless AP whose properties you want to modify.
    The AP Properties tab displays Wireless AP information.
  4. Click the Radio 1 tab.
    Max Tx Power is automatically determined based on regulatory domain/country, antenna selected, line attenuation configured, channel, and certification testing.
