Well, if my AP could produce 100mw of transmit power, I would definitely be eyeing the 250mw or even the 500mw model. ;-) Hyperlink states that this unit can produce the full 100mw of transmit power from as little as 1mw of input. Of course, testing will show if this is true or not. Now, my AP (D-Link DWL-2100AP) has a max power output of 31mw @ 54Mbp in 11g mode, and a max output of 63mw at any 11b speed. It seems to me that I should be able to dial down the power on the AP a bit, which should give me a cleaner signal output from the AP, run that into the Hyperlink amplifier and have a very nice net transmit power increase (plus added receive sensitivity) over what my AP can do on its own. /Alex K. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tyler van Houwelingen Sent: Monday, December 05, 2005 12:38 PM To: SeattleWireless Talk List Subject: Re: Hyperlink Amplifier - WAS RE: REPEATER Some thoughts about amps... As I understand it, with this type of low cost amp, its does not add to your transmit power, but rather 'replace' it. So if you have a 100mw Access Point and add a 100mw hyperlink amp, you will still be at 100mW Tx power. A 250mw amp will put you at 250mw Tx. You will, however, see an increase in your Rx sensitivity from the amp, which will definately help your link to clients devices.
