CONCURRENT QUAD-RADIO FOR UP TO 4.866 GBPS

The AP1004WRe leverages the combined power of four radios, one 2.4 GHz (3x3:3) and three 5 GHz radios (4x4:4), for a total of 15 parallel streams. In addition, dual 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports provide up t o 5 Gbps of wired backhaul. The AP1004WRe also offers a BLE radio while the 2.4 GHz radio can be fully or partially repurposed for dual-band intrusion detection and spectrum monitoring. The Quad Outdoor AP1004WRe features a patented design and system architecture enabling concurrent quad-radio operation without impacting the radio’s performance for best-in-class aggregate PHY throughput of 4.866 Gbps. In addition, the patented design does not compromise RF performance and radio coverage, making the AP1004WRe amenable to different deployment venues and scenarios.

ACTIVE CLIENT ROAMING & LOAD BALANCING

Our patent-pending load balancing algorithms perform traffic management to optimize client associations, throughput, and roaming. Based on 802.11k and 802.11v protocols, the algorithm dynamically balances users between intra- and inter-AP radios to maximize radio, client and network performance and capacity.

PATENTED ANTENNA TECHNOLOGY

The Quad Outdoor AP1004WRe has a patented, fully-integrated, software-adjustable antenna system with the following characteristics: band-optimized, tightly-controlled radiation patterns, polarization and pattern diversity, as well as beam angle and shape reconfigurability. Bandoptimized antennas enable optimal radiation in the entire spectrum; polarization and pattern diversity provide enhanced MIMO and MU-MIMO operation; beam angle and shape reconfigurability enable direct energy to various spatial sectors for radio coverage zone control and interference management. These unique features provide system designers and integrators unparalleled flexibility in various deployment venues, maximizing network capacity with fewer AP’s and faster install times.

AUTO DISCOVERY

Upon power-up, the Quad Outdoor AP1004WRe is auto-discovered by WMS which performs AP verification and authorization before commencing data transfer. Once authorized, updated firmware and AP configuration are downloaded in a secured and controlled tunnel for an efficient and fast bring-up and operation.
