more channels than the 2.4Ghz band, and that the 5Ghz channels operate in 40MHz while the 2.5Ghz band operates in 20MHz. Airtime Fairness Mode This feature provides equal access to all clients on the wireless medium, regardless of client type, capability, or operating system, thus delivering uniform performance to all clients. This feature prevents some clients from monopolizing resources at the expense of other clients. Airtime Fairness Modes The Airtime fairness consists of the following modes:  Default Access-Provides access based on the client request. When Air Time Fairness is set to default access, per user and per SSID bandwidth contracts are not enforced  Fair Access-Allocates Airtime evenly across all the clients  Preferred Access-Allocates Airtime to all the clients but preference is for higher performing clients Figure 88 Airtime fairness mode Customize valid channels You can customize the Valid 5GHz channels for 20MHz channels and the Valid 2.4 GHz channels for 20MHz channels in the IAP. Here, the administrator can configure the ARM channels in the channel width window. The valid channels will automatically show in the static channel assignment dialog. Min transmit power This indicates the minimum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. You may also specify a special value of 127 dBm for regulatory maximum to disable power adjustments for environments such as outdoor mesh links. Higher power level settings may be constrained by local regulatory requirements and AP capabilities. In the event that an AP is configured for a Min Tx EIRP setting it cannot support, this value will be reduced to the highest supported power setting. The default value is18 dBm. 116 | Adaptive Radio Management Dell PowerConnect W-Series Instant Access Point 6.1.2.3-2.0.0.0 | User Guide

Customize valid channels
You can customize the
Valid 5GHz channels
for 20MHz channels
and the
Valid 2.4 GHz channels
for 20MHz
channels
in the IAP. Here, the administrator can configure the ARM channels in the channel width window. The
valid channels will automatically show in the static channel assignment dialog.
Min transmit power
This indicates the minimum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments.
You may also specify a special value of 127 dBm for regulatory maximum to disable power adjustments for
environments such as outdoor mesh links. Higher power level settings may be constrained by local regulatory
