Typical Range

Wed Sep 19, 2007 2:33 am

What would be a typical distance to expect between the AP and CPE below?

AP: RB532a/XR2/Omni12dBi
CPE: RB133c/XR2/Pannel19dBi.

On AP side, the cable is about 3 feet, and the CPE side the cable is only 1 feet. I tried the wireless calculators online but couldn't find the typical losses for the connectors and cables.

Use the Mikrotik link calculator http://www.mikrotik.com/test_link.php

At a RX Sensitivity of -70dBm, you can reliably do 6km. Push your RX Sensitivity to -75dBm and you can do 10km
