Operating concurrently in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, the Super WiFi A8-Ein (ac) series base station can provide access connectivity in both bands as well as long-range (up to 30 km) backhauling in the 5GHz band, through a dual-polarisation flat-panel antenna.
Key Features:
- Base station and antenna array in one integrated unit, eliminating RF cabling work. Simple installation at rooftop, wall, tower and lamppost.
- High 802.11ac throughput capacity up to 1,167 Mbps data rate.
- Extended coverage in a Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) environment which matches the foot print of most 3G deployments in dense urban environments.
- Multi-beam 8×8:2 MIMO Smart Antenna Technology to provide superior signal strength and link budget in dense urban environment deployments.
- 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz dual band dual concurrent access.
- Backhaul redundancy and access link safe mode.
- Adaptive interference control mitigates the influence from surrounding interfering sources.
- Standard 802.11b/g/n access and 802.11a/n/ac access/ backhaul.
- Giga Ethernet or integrated 802.11a/n/ac wireless backhaul.
- Remote configuration through the Altai Wireless Management System (AWMS) or AltaiCare network management solution.
