Interference
Threshold
Spectrum Management uses the interference threshold to
perform instantaneous channel hops. If the measured
interference on a channel exceeds the specified threshold,
then i-DFS will instruct the wireless to immediately move to a
better channel. If a better channel cannot be found the PTP
600 Series will continue to use the current active channel.
(Default –85 dBm).
