Product Overview

airClient TOTAL 241 is smartBridges answer to customer's demand for a rugged outdoor customer premise equipment. sB3415-03 operates in the license free 2.4GHz and provides up to 6 Mbps of data throughput. sB3415-03 can also be used in PtP mode backhaul application.

It comes with a built-in innovative high gain antenna, which can provide a range of up to 6 miles (10 km). Alternatively, the N Connector on the equipment gives customers added flexibility to control radiation pattern and increase range by using an external antenna. To manage the customer SLA, the radio supports BW management for wired and wireless interface. To reduce the jitter and delays for sensitive applications like voice, video radio supports 8 configurable priority queues.

The airClient TOTAL 241 has extensive network management and networking software features such as Network Address Translation (NAT) and Router capabilities to isolate the user's service provider network while the MAC based bandwidth control provides an additional security.

Application Scenario

Click to view bigger picture

The purpose built rugged hardware and design makes the wireless system quick to install and easy to operate. This makes the airClient TOTAL 241 well positioned to connect cities and rural towns at an unbeatable per subscriber cost.

Additionally sB3415 is well suited for other commercial applications such as rural business connectivity (example petrol stations and grocery shops needing credit card transactions), less bandwidth demanding industrial applications such as telemetry or central office to satellite office connectivity.
