Packet Bursting for Better Performance
The Professional Access Point includes 802.11e based packet bursting technology that increases data
throughput and speed of transmission over the wireless network. Packet bursting enables the transmission
of multiple packets without the extra overhead of header information. The effect of this is to increase
network speed and data throughput. The size of packet bursts allowed (maximum burst length) is a
configurable parameter.
Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) Interval for Client Stations
The Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) is an interval of time when a Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) client station
has the right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless medium (WM).
