Base Station Equipment

Installed at the base station site, the Access Units (AUs) communicate with the Subscriber Units (SUs). Each AU connects to the network through a standard IEEE 802.3 Ethernet 10/100BaseT (RJ-45) interface and connects to the outdoor units via a CAT-5 cable.

We offer two types of Access Units: 

AU-D-NI-ff-VL-ant - a complete AU system including standalone indoor unit, outdoor unit, and detached antenna *ff- frequency for example: 5.8 for 5.8GHz or 5.4 for 5.4GHz etc. *ant- antenna direction: 60 for 60º, 90 for 90º, 120 for 120º, and 360 for 360º (for 5.8GHz only) 

		AU-D-BS (BreezeACCESS VL AU-D-BS) Access Unit includes a module to be inserted into the base station chassis as well as an outdoor unit with an detached antenna
		AU-D-SA (BreezeACCESS VL AU-D-SA) Stand-alone Access Unit with detached antenna
		BS-SH-VL (BreezeACCESS BS-SH-VL) 19" chassis that can contain up to 7 BS-AU modules and power supply modules.

Customer Premises Equipment

Installed at the customer premises, the subscriber unit (SU) enables customer connection with the base station and supports single or multiple users. SUs provide an efficient platform for always-on, high-speed Internet and Intranet, VoIP, VPN and other services. Each SU connects to the network through a standard IEEE 802.3 Ethernet 10/100BaseT (RJ-45) interface and connects to its outdoor part via CAT-5 cable. Each SU kit includes a small indoor unit, CAT5 indoor-outdoor cable, pole mounted outdoor unit and integrated antenna. 

Several CPE models are available:

• The SU-A-3-1D-VL supports gross rate of up to 3 Mbps for a single Ethernet device, includes integrated antenna   
• The SU-A-6-1D-VL supports gross rate of up to 6 Mbps for a single Ethernet device, includes integrated antenna   
• The SU-A-6-BD-VL supports gross rate of up to 6 Mbps for multiple users (bridge), includes integrated antenna   
• The SU-A-54-BD-VL supports gross rate of up to 54 Mbps for multiple users (bridge), includes integrated antenna   
• The SU-E-54-BD-VL supports gross rate of up to 54 Mbps for multiple users (bridge), does not include antenna

CPE rates are SW upgradeable from 6Mbps to 54Mbps, allowing for remote and effortless rate upgrade to the user.
