Aruba Beacon Interval and Power

  • 1.  Aruba Beacon Interval and Power

    Posted Apr 18, 2017 12:11 PM

    I am currently testing the Aruba Beacons and I need the TX Power and the Broadcasting Interval of the Beacons for my application, but I could not find this information in any kind of datasheet or help page.

     

    Does anyone know these specifications or where could I look for them?

     

    I am using the beacons in the Location mode.

    Carlos,

     

    The datasheet is available here: http://www.arubanetworks.com/products/mobile-engagement/aruba-beacons/

    From there, you can see that the beacons chirp at 0 dBm (in location mode, proximity is configurable).

     

    The battery-powered Beacon chirp interval is 500ms long. USB Beacon chirp interval is 100ms long.

    Carlos,

     

    In location beacon we can not change the tranmist power level it is fixed. It is hardcored to power level 14 from beacons v.1.8.0 onwards.
