Device status LEDs
Once power has been established, your device will initialize and attempt to connect to the network. Device initialization may take 30-60 seconds. By default your EX15 will attempt to use DHCP to establish an Internet connection either through its cellular modem or the ethernet port .
- Cellular connectivity status is indicated by the color-coded LTE light.
- Indicator lights on the Wireless Strength Indicator show you the cellular network signal strength.
- Ethernet connections are confirmed via the light corresponding to the EX15 port number.
Signal quality indicators
| Signal bars | Weighted dBm | Signal strength % | Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
|
-113 to -99 | 0% to 23% | Bad |
|
|
-98 to -87 | 24% to 42% |
Marginal |
|
|
-86 to -76 | 43% to 61% | OK |
|
|
-75 to -64 | 62% to 80% | Good |
|
|
-63 to -51 | 81% to 100% | Excellent |
The weighted dBm measurements are negative numbers, meaning values closer to zero denote a larger number. For example, a -85 is a better signal than -90.
Note See Cellular signal quality explained for more information regarding how signal strength is calculated and subsequently displayed via the LED indicators.
