last-mile access and backbone
voice over IP (VoIP) and
video surveillance
These bridges transmit and receive in the 4.9-GHz frequency
band range, at 4.940 to 4.990. The form for these bridges is
shown in Figure 8. These bridges are supported by their own
dedicated user guide.
PTP 500 Series Bridges
Cambium PTP 500 Series Bridges offer reliable non-line-of-sight (NLoS) and long-distance line
of sight (LoS) connection to the other bridge in the pair. Their features include Multiple-input
Multiple-output (MIMO), intelligent Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (i-OFDM),
Advanced Spectrum Management, and Adaptive Modulation. These are available as 105-Mbps
bridges. These bridges transmit and receive in 5.4- and 5.8-GHz frequency band ranges. The form
for these bridges is shown in Figure 8 on Page 41.
They are a solution for any of the following field applications:
high-speed backhaul
campus connection
between buildings
telemedicine
disaster recovery
emergency services
voice over IP (VoIP) and
video surveillance
The PTP 500 Series Bridges offer many more SNMP-accessible element management parameters
than do their PTP 400 and 600 Series counterparts; specifically, a significantly larger number of
read-only fields, manageable objects, and notifications addressable to the NMS. Further, a new
PTP LINKPlanner tool currently supports only PTP 500 Bridge networks. This tool allows
operators to simultaneously see path calculations for configuring single and multiple links, using a
Google Earth overview. In this way, the PTP LINKPlanner can be more useful than the Link
Estimator tool, which continues to support the PTP 400 and 600 Series wireless bridges that
Cambium offers.
These bridges are supported by their own dedicated user guide.
PTP 600 Series Bridges
Cambium PTP 600 Series Bridges offer reliable non-line-of-sight (NLoS) and long-distance line
of sight (LoS) connection to the other bridge in the pair. Their features include adaptive
modulation, intelligent Dynamic Frequency Selection, and a preset that denies connection to any
unit other than the one in its pair. These are available as full (300-Mbps) or lite (150-Mbps)
bridges.
