You can also measure or calculate additional attenuation between the device and antenna before configuring the antenna gain. To know if your AP device supports external antenna connectors, see the Install Guide that is shipped along with the AP device. EIRP and Antenna Gain The following formula can be used to calculate the EIRP limit related RF power based on selected antennas (antenna gain) and feeder (Coaxial Cable loss): EIRP = Tx RF Power (dBm) + GA (dB) - FL (dB) The following table describes this formula: 89 | Customizing W-IAP Settings Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.3.1-4.2.0.0 | User Guide
