Stable and Reliable Long-range Outdoor Wireless Solution
PLANET’s newly-revised WBS-900AC 5GHz 802.11ac 900Mbps TDMA Outdoor Long-range Wireless CPE offers a long-range and excellent throughput better than those of traditional wireless devices. One of its standout features is its seamless design, making installation easy. With the standard IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE), the WBS-900AC CPE can be easily installed in areas where power outlets are not available, further enhancing its versatility and ease of deployment. Its PoE capability is designed for both end-span and mid-span configurations, providing flexibility in deployment options.
Whether connecting directly to an end-span PoE switch or through a mid-span PoE injector, the WBS-900AC CPE ensures seamless integration into the existing network infrastructure. The WBS-900AC excels in providing wireless long-distance city-to-city connectivity for all applications. Leveraging TDMA (Time division multiple access ) and ATPC (Automatic Transmit Power Control) technologies, it allows multiple users to share the same frequency band without interference, thanks to its intelligent scheduling that assigns different time slots for transmission. This ensures efficient spectrum utilization and reliable performance even in congested environments. Moreover, the WBS-900AC boasts an IP65-rated outdoor enclosure, making it resilient against rigorous weather conditions. Its rugged construction enables it to withstand harsh outdoor environments, ensuring uninterrupted operation in any situation. Overall, the WBS-900AC combines seamless integration, long-range connectivity, and robust weather resistance, making it an ideal choice for various outdoor wireless applications.
Benefits of TDMA and ATPC
TDMA is a channel access method for shared-medium networks. It allows several users to share the same frequency channel by dividing the signal into different time slots. The users transmit in rapid succession, one after the other, each using its own time slot. This allows multiple stations to share the same transmission medium while using only a part of its channel capacity. With the TDMA technology, the WBS-900AC reduces interference between users by allowing them to transmit at different times. It provides a better quality data transmission compared to other techniques because it reduces interference and allows for more efficient use of the available frequency spectrum. The ATPC, providing automatic wireless signal adjustment in accordance with the environment, reduces mutual interference between the CPEs, and improves the stability of data transmission.
Benefits of MU-MIMO under 802.11ac Wave 2
With the MU-MIMO Wave 2 technology, the WBS-900AC, installed in public areas such as hotspots, airports and conferences, reduces the frustration that Wi-Fi users often experience in downloading web pages, e-mail file attachments and media contents. For cellular operators, the WBS-900AC provides a better Wi-Fi user experience, reducing the likelihood of users turning off Wi-Fi and putting more load on the cellular network. For enterprises, this technology also can solve Wi-Fi congestion issues in open work spaces and conference rooms.
Flexible, Durable and Reliable Outdoor Characteristics
To reach maximum reliability in the harsh environment, the WBS-900AC not only comes with IP65-rated casing, but also adopts the Qualcomm Chipset Solution, capable of withstanding wide temperature ranging from -40 to 70 degrees C. Designed with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (Power over Ethernet) power scheme, the WBS-900AC can be easily installed in the areas where power outlets are not available. Furthermore, it is also suitable to be integrated with PLANET Renewable Powered PoE System to offer farther wireless service in remote areas.
Designed for Various Requirements
The WBS-900AC is specially designed for long-distance outdoor wireless solutions that are capable of establishing stable bridge connection with 25dBi high gain dish antenna. To provide long range and maximum performance., the WBS-900AC can implement 3 operation modes and is easy to use where a multitude of applications in communities, warehouses, campuses, harbors, etc. can be made.
Long-distance Connection
PLANET WBS-900AC is specially designed for long-distance outdoor wireless bridge solutions, capable of establishing a stable bridge connection with a 25dBi high gain dish antenna to provide long-range connection and maximum performance. It supports TDMA technology, reducing interference between users by allowing them to transmit at different times, even when a large number of users share the same frequency band. It is easy to install and adjust suitable settings in appropriate locations. In terms of management, the WBS-900AC features adjustable transmit power control and IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, regulating network data transfer by delaying less important or less desired packets.
