Figure 1.1 ES-Series Product Model Number Explication
CAUTION: Use of
4.4 GHz radios in
the U.S. without govern-
ment approval is strictly
forbidden.
The Platform identifier for Fortress's first generation ES-series
Mesh Points is three digits, as shown in Figure 1.1. The
number “2” prefixed to the ES2
440’s platform number identifies
the High-Capacity Infrastructure Mesh Point as a next
generation ES-series Fortress platform. The second-to-last
digit in the platform number represents the maximum number
of radios the platform chassis can accommodate.
The number of non-zero digits after the hyphen corresponds to
the actual number of radios installed in the Mesh Point. The
value of each digit indicates the frequency band(s) that radio
supports, as shown in Table 1.2.
Only the ES2440 supports an option for Multiple-Input Multiple-
Output ()-capable 4.4 GHz radios, indicated by the “m”
appended to these two model numbers: ES2440-34m,
ES2440-3444m (All standard equipment ES2440 radios
[802.11a/g/n and 802.11a/n] support).
A zero following the hyphen in an ES-series model number
indicates a Mesh Point with no radios installed.
1.3.1.2 Fortress Mesh Point Management
Fortress Mesh Points can be administered through either of
two native software management tools. They support SNMP
(Simple Network Management Protocol) transactions, and
each model chassis provides a small subset of basic user
controls and visual indicators.
