Allows you to set the selected radio's receive sensitivity reduction threshold level. This threshold determines the RSSI (in dBm) at which the radio acknowledges the SOP (Start of Packet) frames received from clients and begins to demodulate and decode the packets.
In highly dense environments, or single-channel networks, having two or more radios sharing a channel, CCI (co-channel interference) adversely impacts network performance. By setting this threshold, you can control the radio‘s receive sensitivity to interference and noise, thereby reducing the impact of CCI. You are basically configuring the AP to not decode packets that have a signal strength below the specified threshold level.
The available rx-sensitivity-reduction threshold levels are: high, low, medium, and None. Refer to the following table for rx-sensitivity-reduction threshold level to RSSI mapping for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands:
