Page 4: Preface
This manual covers the basic configuration and installation of the M5580M-FSU Wireless Point to Point Subscriber Unit. The M5580M-FSU consists of a radio with an internal 8 dBi. The M5580M-FSU may be used in conjunction with an optional FCC certified external reflector dish for extended transmission range. When using the reflector dish, professional installation is required. -

Overview Chapter 1 Overview Each M5580M-FSU acts as an endpoint in a point to multipoint wireless Ethernet transmission system, which provides network connectivity at, speeds up to 45 Mbps depending on the transmission distance, noise floor, and the antenna configuration. The M5580M-FSU uses either CCK or OFDM technology coupled with Automatic Repeat request (ARQ) for improved resistance to interference and noise. - Page 6 Range vs. Throughput The following table shows approximate maximum ranges (at recommended fade margins) achievable with the M5580M-FSU when associated with an M5830S-AP in CCK mode. Ranges for OFDM modes will be published when available. Table – 1 Range & Throughput (CCK mode)
