world leader in design and production of Broadband Fixed Wireless (BFW)
systems.

Figure 1: Intro - AN-80i Components

The AN-80i is a high-performance, high-speed wireless Ethernet bridge for use in
a commercial, industrial, business, or government environment. The system
operates in the 5.8 GHz band using a time division duplexing (TDD) RF
transceiver to transmit and receive on the same RF channel. AN-80i features
include: advanced technologies to address inter-cell interference, enhanced
security features through a proprietary over-the-air encryption scheme, and
Automatic Transmitter Power Control (ATPC) to automatically achieve and
maintain optimum performance.
The AN-80i outdoor unit is housed in a weatherproof aluminum alloy case. The
outdoor unit can be used with a selection of available external antennas. When
equipped with a narrow beam antenna, the AN-80i supports long-range operations
of over 50 miles (80 km) in clear line of sight (LOS) conditions. An indoor PoE
power adapter provides operational power for the AN-80i and connection to the
Ethernet network.
