In above result : -- At 5830MHz Frequency : Noise level is -90dBm (Must be selected while configuring the Radio)
At 5855MHz Frequency : Noise level is -48dBm
 Cambium Spectrum Analyzer
Spectrum Analyzer tool can be used to find out the least noise frequency channel. Conducting
spectrum analysis causes the AP to enter scan mode and the AP drops all RF connections.

 Running the Spectrum Analyzer
Before configuring the frequency, check the Noise level on available frequencies and choose the least Noise frequency for
Radio configuration.

To conduct a spectrum analysis, Perform the following procedure:-

Required Software:
Java Run-time Environment (JRE)
Procedure:
1.On the ePMP GUI, navigate to Configuration Radio
2.Configure the Device Mode to Spectrum Analyzer.
3.Click on the Save button and then Reboot the device.
4.Login to the ePMP GUI, then navigate to Tools Spectrum Analyzer
5.Click on the Download Spectrum Analyzer Tool.
6.Locate the folder to which the Spectrum Analyzer Tool was saved, and double click on the file ePMP-1000-Spectrum-
Analyzer-Tool.jnlp to launch Spectrum Analyzer Tool.

7.If a security warning window is presented, then tick the checkbox , next to I accept the risk and want to run this application
and click on Run.
8.Once the Spectrum Analyzer is displayed, select the frequency Range for your scan from the menu bar.
9.If you want to Select a particular range of frequencies, Click on Customization and then then enter required frequency range.

Frequency

In above result : -- At 5830MHz Frequency : Noise level is -90dBm (Must be selected while configuring the Radio)
At 5855MHz Frequency : Noise level is -48dBm

Note :-- Signal strength (RSSI Level) must be reduce to have the minimum 10dBm difference between Noise and RSSI level.

For eg. -- If current RSSI on link at 5830MHz frequency is -55dBm and Noise level on this frequency is -65dBm then the link will work.
And if, the Noise level on this frequency is found -60dBm or high, then this link will have packet drop and heavy latency issue. So it is advised
to have a differnce of minimum 10dBm between Noise and RSSI.

After the Completion of Spectrum Analysis, Perform the following steps to return back to the device mode of AP / SM .
Procedure:
1.In the spectrum analyzer application, click on Stop Scan.
2.Close the spectrum an,alyzer application by clicking File and Exit.
3.On the ePMP GUI, navigate to Configuration Radio
4.Configure Device Mode to AP / SM
5.Click on the Save and Reboot the device.
