MetroLinq™ 10G Tri-Band Omni
IgniteNet’s MetroLinq 10G Tri-band Omni is the world’s first cost-effective 60GHz + 5GHz + 2.4GHz PTMP base station enabling high performance, interference-free connections worldwide up to 10Gbps. With a total OTA capacity of 16.393Gbps, the MetroLinq 10G is the first AP capable of providing fiber-like connections to many clients simultaneously. It also has an added advantage of being license-free in most markets, allowing ultra-fast deployment and without the hassle of other frequency bands. The MetroLinq 10G also includes both 2.4 & 5GHz 802.11ac Wave 2 radios which can be used to provide access in harder to reach nLOS applications ranging from hotspots to fixed broadband and many more.
Tri-band flexibility
The MetroLinq 10G base station has three 120° 60 GHz beamforming sectors enabling interference-free connections to form network backhaul rings as well as to connect high-capacity 60 GHz fixed wireless broadband clients. There is also a built-in 5 GHz radio with 360° coverage which can be used as a failover for 60 GHz clients, for pure 5 GHz fixed wireless broadband clients, or for access for nearby Wi-Fi clients. Finally, there is a 2.4 GHz radio with 360° coverage which is dedicated for nearby Wi-Fi clients as well.
10+ Gbps
The 10G Omni has a 10 Gigabit SFP+ port allowing full speed backhaul of the ultra-fast tri-band radios as well as a secondary 1 Gbps Ethernet port with PoE in support that can be used for out of band management or for the connectivity of additional devices like IP Cameras. There is also a DC terminal block which can be used to power up the unit.
Powerful OS
The advanced operating system has a professional feature-set required to do point-to-point & point-to-multi-point communications, which includes 128 bit AES encryption for security, Jumbo frame support, 5 GHz failover radio and many more. Each base-station can be configured individually and also using our cloud based controller available at: https://cloud.ignitenet.com/welcome/login.
Multiple client devise options
MetroLinq 10G Omni is a universal product allowing to connect different type of clients on 60, 5 and 2.4 GHz frequencies. Above picture illustrates average recommended distances to connect wireless clients.
Main applications
MetroLinq 10G Omni can be used to form rings and build hybrid fiber wireless networks to extend the existing fiber infrastructure quickly and cost effectively. It is ideal not only for backhaul but also for the last-mile access applications. From high-speed business broadband to multi-gigabit rural connectivity, MetroLinq 10G Omni is the most universal base-station allowing to connect users on multiple frequencies and start delivering services quickly and cost-effectively.
