Value Creating License free broadband

Why pay for expensive licensed bands to avoid RF congestion? The airPoint Nexus TOTAL 241 utilizes the license free ISM band in 2.4 GHz to deliver three non-overlapping channels. In the event of RF congestion, the software tunable Nexus radio can remotely change frequency bands. In addition, the radio employs advanced interference mitigation techniques to provide high availability to clients.

Use of the IEEE 802.11 b/g industry standards allows for interoperability with third party clients. The multi-band radio provides an easy migration path to upgrade existing 802.11b based wireless networks and investment protection for the equipment.

Intelligent Features for Robust and Scalable Networks

The airPoint Nexus TOTAL is an access point with Layer 3 wide area edge router capabilities for deploying hierarchical networks. Centralized RADIUS access authentication prevents unauthorized use of the infrastructure. The bandwidth management capability coupled with multiple service profiles allows individual time-of-day based upstream/downstream bandwidth allocation for each client.

Carrier Class Attributes

The Spanning Tree Protocol allows installation of redundancy in the network. The WatchGuard feature of the airPoint continuously monitors the device and performs an automatic recovery for realizing high system availability. The airPoint provides a unified Web and SNMP based remote management interface. This allows for quick integration of the airPoint Nexus TOTAL with the industry leading EMS solutions.

The purpose built airPoint Nexus TOTAL with electrical overstress protection can withstand harsh outdoor operating environments ranging from -49º F to 140º F (-45º C to +60º C) and very humid or very dry conditions. The rust proof plenum rated metal enclosure with enclosed N Connectors give added protection from environmental conditions.

Quick and Easy Deployment

Deployment of large wireless networks has never been easier. With our easy-to-use access point and simple-to-use software, the network can be setup rapidly and cost-effectively. The integrated high performance antenna is suitable for servicing most subscribers. For some hard to reach subscriber client, an external high gain antenna can be connected to the N Connector. This flexibility allows the operator to use a single equipment to meet a variety of subscriber installation requirements.

Additionally, dual powered Ethernet Ports allow for back-to-back connectivity (daisy chaining) with two other PoE enabled devices. This can be used for setting up a WiPoP or a repeater.
