Что сильнее всего мешает завоеванию большого количества новых пользователей или клиентов с помощью услуг беспроводного широкополосного доступа? Препятствия и преграды. Препятствия и преграды, мешающие высокоскоростной беспроводной передаче сигналов или делающие ее невозможной: высотные здания в городских районах с плотной застройкой, густая листва в пригородах и сельских областях или другие аналогичные препятствия в различных условиях.
Новая серия точек доступа Canopy и абонентских модулей, уже поступившая в продажу в Европе, на Ближнем Востоке и Африке и запланированная для выпуска на рынок в других регионах, позволяет компаниям, органам городского управления и поставщикам услуг создавать многофункциональные и экономичные решения для того, чтобы охватить недоступных прежде пользователей и абонентов.
The Canopy® 400 Series from Motorola delivers Near Line-of-Sight (nLOS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) connectivity, coupled with high throughput, increased range and exceptionally low cost of ownership.
High-speed wireless broadband connectivity is fast becoming the preferred communications system for enterprises, municipalities and service providers all over the world. Some users or subscribers, however, have remained out of reach literally because they are out of sight—due to lack of Line-of-Sight (LOS) link paths.
Now, with Canopy 400 Series Access Points (AP) and Subscriber Modules (SM), those out-of-sight users can become top-of-mind, offering increased opportunities for new productivity and new revenue streams. In addition, along with nLOS and NLOS wireless broadband access, the 400 Series also provides the Canopy system’s highest throughput for longer distances.
The Canopy 400 Series uses Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology to deliver exceptional nLOS/NLOS coverage in locations where foliage, tall buildings or other obstructions limit wireless broadband access. These capabilities enable operators to deploy networks that can penetrate foliage and reach around buildings and other obstructions to serve previously unreachable users and customers. The results can be crucial— maximized communications, increased productivity, important new revenue streams and strengthened bottom lines.
Enhanced Throughput.
The Canopy 400 Series delivers throughput of up to 21 Mbps based on its underlying OFDM technology. This high-end throughput supports today’s most promising sources for increased productivity and improved revenue generation: popular new bandwidth-intensive applications such as Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP), video surveillance, high-speed Internet access, multiple voice connections, and many more.
In addition, the Canopy 400 Series extends your network’s connectivity ranges to distances of five miles (eight kilometers) or more per AP cluster. This increased geographic coverage is powered in part by the 400 Series’ high gain antennas and rate adaptive modulation schemes.
Whether you are a new operator or an existing Canopy network provider, the Canopy 400 Series can provide one of the lowest costs of ownership in the industry. For current Canopy users, the 400 Series’ cost-effectiveness is driven by its ability to co-locate with other Canopy equipment to provide either network extension or a network overlay. For new operators, the system provides a globally proven all-outdoor solution, with reduced power consumption, fast, simple deployment, high reliability and low-cost ongoing operation.
HELPING OPERATORS EXPAND INTO 5 GHZ.
GPS synchronization and co-location capabilities allow operators to deploy the Canopy 400 Series as a new network, a network extension or a network overlay.
The Canopy 400 Series AP and SM products operate in the 5.4 GHz spectrum. In many parts of the world, this newly available spectrum gives operators 255 MHz of usable frequency band—that’s almost double the amount available in the 5.7 GHz band. The Canopy 400 Series offers a fast, cost-conscious way to enter this exciting and advantageous spectrum.
The 400 Series is equipped with powerful GPS synchronization that significantly reduces self-interference, allowing for co-location applications with existing Canopy networks. Co-location capability enables the system to be deployed as a 5.4 GHZ frequency band overlay network.
The standard Canopy 400 configuration uses an integrated 60-degree antenna. In addition, the Canopy 400 Series is also available as a connectorized solution, allowing operators of overlay, expanded or greenfield networks to choose the antennas they prefer.
The 400 Series can lower the cost of ownership for existing Canopy network operators because the 400 Series APs and SMs use the same Release 8.x application software. They also use the same power supplies, brackets, surge suppressors, and Cluster Management Module (CMM) as other Canopy components—reducing training, support and inventory costs. For simplified network management, 400 Series products are also compatible with the Prizm Element Management System.
Because the 5.4 GHz frequency band is shared with certain government radar systems, networks operating in the band must have DFS capabilities for resolution of conflicts. Canopy 400 Series APs and SMs meet ETSI DFS Standard for Europe and Brazil, and the FCC Standard for the United States and IC Standard for Canada.
