In contrast to antenna gain, the entry in the field 'Tx power reduction' causes a static reduction in the power by the value entered, and ignores the other parameters.

Possible values:
- 0 to 999 dB
Default: 0
Note: The transmission power reduction simply reduces the emitted power. The reception sensitivity (reception antenna gain) remains unaffected. This option is useful, for example, where large distances have to be bridged by radio when using shorter cables. The reception antenna gain can be increased without exceeding the legal limits on transmission power. This leads to an improvement in the maximum possible range and, in particular, the highest possible data transfer rates.
