streams are transmitted by one transceiver unit, and are available to be re-
combined by the radio chipset of a second transceiver unit.
Data throttling
The unit's FluidThrottle functionality allows you to specify the maximum
amount of data throughput the unit will be required to handle at any time.
The unit's throughput capacity can be upgraded to different levels using
software plug-ins.
MPLS protocol
Two different Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)-based protocol
versions can be chosen. If a newer network is being built or upgraded, the
advanced Prodigy 2.0 protocol can be selected to boost performance. If
an older network incorporating Fluidmesh components is being upgraded,
the Prodigy 1.0 protocol with limited functionality can be selected to
guarantee compatibility. Prodigy uses a traffic optimization algorithm that
allows every Fluidmesh radio to assign a specific priority level to every
forwarded data packet.
Unit configuration
The unit is compatible with Fluidmesh RACER™. This is a centralized, web-
based interface that allows you to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot the
unit (and in certain cases, the entire wireless network) in real time, without
the need for any offline software. In cases where an initial connection
cannot be made to the internet, the unit can be configured using a built-in
offline Configurator interface.
Environmental rating
The unit is certified for outdoor usage, equipped with vibration-proof
connectors, and designed for fast installation and enhanced reliability in
harsh environments.
Product specifications
