Maximum Power Levels

5.8-GHz Band

An improper combination of power level and antenna configurations can result in equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) above the amount allowed per regulatory domain. Table 7-2 indicates the maximum power levels and antenna gains allowed.

3 A maximum of 13 dBm is allowed, but that setting is not supported by the bridge.

4 On point-to-multipoint links, the non-root bridges communicating with the root bridge can use a maximum power setting of 24 dBm. A root 22.5 dBi integrated antenna bridge is limited to a maximum power setting of 12 dBm.

5 The bridge is approved only for Ireland.


To configure your bridge's output power level, refer to the Cisco Aironet 1400 Series Wireless Bridge Software Configuration Guide.
