Problem with antenna

druiz

Hi,

Is there any way (debug, trap,...) the AP can send/show if the external antenna is broken or disconnected? We have lots of AP's installed in a place where sometimes the external antennas can be broken, and I'd like to know if there is a way to know it at the time it happens.

Thanks.

There is no such trap.  The AP cannot detect whether an antenna is connected or not.

Basically you cannot detect that, however, you can observe signal drops as the radiated power would be less, in case the antenna gets broken. The power will be reflected back, output power will be less.
