FlexWave
Millimeter Wave Transmission System
Applications
The FlexWave family of millimeter wave products addresses a wide variety of deployment requirements
of carriers, enterprises, businesses, government, and educational institutions for high availability, cost
efficient bandwidth services.
Applications
Enterprise/Business
Campus connectivity
Storage access networks
LAN and WAN extension
HDTV transmission
Redundant links
While previous wireless backhaul solutions were hampered by fog, dust, snow and even light rain, and
as a result have not been able to attain the high availability required by carriers, equipment operating in
the 70/80 GHz spectrum today is only affected by extreme heavy rainfall (i.e. > 100mm/hr (4in/hr).
The chart below shows the approximate link distance for the FlexWave MMW for each of the rain zones
at various levels of availability.
