LightPointe, a leading designer and manufacturer of ultra high-speed outdoor wireless point-to-point bridging solutions, announces today the addition of a new 60 GHz MMW wave radio solution, fully compliant with the most recent ETSI specifications, to its product portfolio.
The AireBeam? Z60 operates in the frequency band from 59?63 GHz and is available for unlicensed operation in many European countries including Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The fully outdoor-rated system operates at an over-the-air data rate of 1.6 Gbps, enabling the transport of full duplex Ethernet traffic up to 635 Mbps. For connecting to the network, the AireBeam? Z60 provides both a hot-swappable GbE SFP optical fiber port and a GigE RJ-45 port. Powered by either a Cat5/6 Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) connection or by using a low voltage 48 Vdc power feed, the Z60 supports an Ethernet based management system for SNMP v1/2c support, comes with an integrated Web browser agent, and offers advanced features like a signal strength bar graph LED and flexible mounting options, allowing for no-hassle installation and alignment.
With its ultra-high bandwidth and latency comparable to fiber optic cable, the AireBeam? Z60 targets a rapidly increasing number of short to medium distance, high-capacity, outdoor wireless networking applications in the Enterprise Campus (building-to-building), Metro Ethernet, and 3G/4G Mobile Wireless Network market segments. Enterprises and service providers, operating high-capacity networks, commonly face enormous challenges when trying to interconnect buildings or remote locations that have no fiber access and/or where laying fiber simply takes too long and is cost prohibitive.
?With the addition of the AireBeam? Z60 we are the first company to have a real high-capacity 60 GHz outdoor wireless radio solution that can be easily deployed on an unlicensed basis in many European countries,? said Heinz Willebrand, LightPointe CEO and President. ?It is the right product at the right time, solving many of the most pressing building connectivity problems in the enterprise campus space, as well as backhaul challenges that Mobile Wireless Operators face on a daily basis.?
