Wired interface
In the "Wired interface" tab, the wired Combo Ethernet interface status can be monitored (copper media is for the Ethernet connection, fiber media indicates that device is connected via SFP), as well as media type, duplex mode and traffic load for reception and transmission. The The wired interface statistic is available on the right side, it can be reset by the "Clear counters" button.

Availability statistics
The link availability statistics window displays the following information:
- The overall wireless link availability since the last device reboot, the number of wireless outages when the connection was unavailable.
- Availability statistics for each modulation, for downlink and uplink streams.

Modulation code scheme
Modulation and coding schemes are selected independently for each channel (uplink and downlink). Current modulation for each channel is displayed in the MCS subsection.

Received signal strength indicator
The RSSI indicator displays the received signal level for each channel (uplink and downlink) and both polarizations. Available Available values:
- -90...-80 dBm80 dBm - close to the receiver sensitivity level, only the lowest modulations are available.
- -80...-60 dBm 60 dBm - average input range.
- -60...-40 dBm 40 dBm - the recommended range for achieving best performance.
- >-40 dBm40 dBm - input signal level is too high.

EVM
Error vector magnitude - indicator of the measured input signal quality, telling how far are the received constellation symbols compared to the ideal symbols of the constellation. The parameter value must be as high as possible in absolute value.
Each MCS corresponds with certain EVM value. To achieve the best link quality, try to get EVM to values The recommended level should be less than -21 dB.

Retries and Frame loss
Retried and lost packets need also to be tracked. Retries should tend to zero, link with the retries value more than 5% should not be allowed to operation.

Downlink - the direction from Master to Slave, Uplink - the direction from Slave to Master. These directions are correct for the whole link and do not depend on the roles of the devices. |
