6.1 AC Electrical Characteristics – Transmitter
Transmit power is automatically managed by the device for minimum power
consumption. The transmit power at the RF connector is listed in Table 8 for
802.11a/b/g Modes (all rates).
6.2 Performance/Range
The following table illustrates the typical data rates, performance and range the
device can provide using an omni-directional antenna.
Table 11 - Radio Typical Performance Range

(Unity gain antenna)
Typical Outdoor Distance
(2dBi antenna gain on each end for
B/G mode)
1.0 Mb/s 240m 380m
11.0 Mb/s 135m 215m
6Mb/s 802.11g 135m 215m
6Mb/s 802.11a 49m 155m
54Mb/s 802.11g 12m 19m
54Mb/s 802.11a 4.5m 14m
Ranges are affected by receiver sensitivity; transmit power, free-space path loss,
antenna gain, and link margin. Actual range will vary from those stated. Non-line-
of-site applications will result in lower typical values than those shown above.
The Data Rate is the supported connection rate for the wireless link. The actual
data throughput for the link will be less than the stated data rates.
