Spec Sheet

• RADIUS: You can employ identity-based user accounts
with configurable password rules to control user access
to the radios. Then Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service (RADIUS) can be used to remotely authenticate
users and their levels of access based on your network
policies.
• Event Management: Security and other events are
logged locally and, optionally, can be sent to a centralized
logging server using syslog. Typical messages include
successful and failed log-in events and changes to
security configuration.
• Disaster Recovery: Our “save and restore” feature lets
you back up a radio’s operating configuration file. Then
the file can be restored quickly and easily if a unit must
be reset or replaced.
• Vulnerability Management: Using commercially
available tools, we regularly scan PTP 800 systems for
vulnerabilities and those that pose significant risk are
resolved.
EASY, ACCURATE LINK PLANNING
Our easy-to-use Cambium PTP LINKPlanner tool allows
you to accurately project performance characteristics prior
to purchase based on your specific radio path conditions.
You can plan and optimize a single link or multiple links
simultaneously, obtain configuration details to speed
deployment, display a comprehensive overview of your
entire wireless network via Google
™
Earth and receive a
complete licensed-microwave Bill-of-Materials to simplify
the ordering process. LINKPlanner is available as a stand-
alone tool on our web site.
REDUCED INSTALLATION COSTS
Optimized hardware design and easy-to-follow deployment-
assistance information significantly reduce deployment
man-hours and costs. A Split-Mount solution includes
an ODU and a CMU. The ODU and CMU are connected
by a single intermediate frequency (IF) cable. The CMU’s
extremely small, physical footprint greatly reduces rack-
space requirements. You can even mount the CMU on a wall
or place it on a table if rack space is scarce or non-existent.
In our All-Indoor solution, the IRFU and CMU are installed
indoors with only the antenna on a tower or rooftop. So, you
do not have to climb a tower to install either the IRFU or
CMU. The IRFU and antenna are connected by a waveguide.
Typically, both the IRFU and CMU are rack mounted. Each
IRFU can support up to two transceivers and two antenna
ports – one port for the main antenna and one for a diversity
antenna. All assemblies in the IRFU are field replaceable,
including the transceivers, fans, branching units and RF
cables.
PTP 800 BROCHURE from Release 05-00 – PAGE 4
It is less expensive to pay and insure ground-based
personnel to deploy and maintain the equipment than it
is for specialized personnel to climb towers and work on
electronic equipment. So, eliminating tower climbs can
significantly reduce operating costs. In addition, trade
unions can be reluctant to approve tower climbing by their
members, making all-indoor systems more viable in such
cases.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
All PTP 800 systems integrate seamlessly with our PTP
license-exempt and defined-use licensed systems, as well
as our Point-to-Multipoint systems. Our comprehensive
broadband portfolio gives you an array of line-of-sight
(LOS), non-line-of-sight (NLOS) and ultra long-distance
solutions. As a result, you have complete flexibility to
configure the solution or combination of solutions that best
meet your path conditions, application and infrastructure
requirements, and budgetary guidelines.
END-TO-END WIRELESS MANAGEMENT
Our Cambium Wireless Manager is an optional feature-rich
tool that simplifies management functions and reduces
the time required to manage your wireless network. From
one live Google
™
map view, you can monitor and manage
point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and other SNMP-enabled
devices. This holistic, map-based approach is designed to
speed up problem resolution and boost your network uptime
and availability.
PTP 800 systems also contain embedded web servers to
manage a link either locally or remotely and are designed to
easily integrate with Web-based or SNMP-based network
management systems. Plus, you can choose either in-band
or out-of-band management.
PERFORMANCE BOOSTING TOOLS
PTP 800 systems include industry-leading metrics to
help you attain the best possible performance from your
wireless system. Those metrics include antenna alignment
information, throughput measurements, measurements of
signal level and quality, and troubleshooting diagnostics.
