Hi

You can configure the power level for each AP individually. You can have different settings for 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios on the same AP.

However, you should keep in mind that the the power level 1 is always the maximum power level allowed per country code setting, with each successive power level representing 50% of the previous power level. For example, 1 = maximum power level in a particular regulatory domain, 2 = 50% power, 3 = 25% power, 4 = 12.5% power, and so on.

The transmit power level is assigned an integer value instead of a value in mW or dBm. The integer corresponds to a power level that varies depending on the regulatory domain in which the access points are deployed. The number of available power levels varies based on the access point model. However, power level 1 is always the maximum power level allowed per country code setting, with each successive power level representing 50% of the previous power level. For example, 1 = maximum power level in a particular regulatory domain, 2 = 50% power, 3 = 25% power, 4 = 12.5% power, and so on.

Hi,

Transmit power level of the access point where

 

• 1 = Maximum power allowed per Country Code setting
• 2 = 50% power
• 3 = 25% power
• 4 = 6.25 to 12.5% power
• 5 = 0.195 to 6.25% power.

Note     The power levels and available channels are defined by the Country Code setting and are regulated on a country by country basis.

You can set the AP to power level 5 but it is not recommended. Following are the steps:

Click on Wireess--> Radio --> Select radio A or B , Click on configure on the Hover right side of the concerned AP --> Select the assignment method as Custom and choose the power level you want to set.

Thanks and regards,
