Rogue Devices in Unleashed

I was wondering if I could get some clarification on the RSSI values reported in the rogue devices tab in Unleashed.  The numbers reported are positive values, but the units are dBm.  I am looking at a network that is currently showing a rogue with an RSSI of 40 dBm.  This would mean that the received signal strength is 10,000 mW.  Is this actually the SNR of the received signal, in which case the units would be dB?  Or should these values in fact be negative, in which case the received signal strength would be .0001 mW?  

I need to know which rogue devices are actually being received with stronger signals so that I know which I should try to avoid when channeling my APs.
