Connect Ethernet and E1/T1 Circuits between Two Sites Using Broadband Wireless

Many organizations need to connect voice and LAN traffic between offices in different buildings or sites, in simple point-to-point applications. Yet with the limited copper or fiber infrastructure in many areas, this may be very expensive if possible at all. Wireless transmission enables them to save the cost of expensive leased lines while eliminating the service provider’s need for deploying fiber, thereby enabling rapid deployment of E1/T1 and Ethernet links at a fraction of the cost.

RAD’s AirMux-200 enables the user to connect Ethernet and E1/T1 circuits between two distant sites over broadband wireless. The AirMux-200 supports a radio air interface bandwidth of up to 48 Mbps, yielding a full duplex throughput of up to 18 Mbps for user traffic. This means the user can transport up to four E1/T1 voice circuits and have ample bandwidth remaining for 10/100BaseT Ethernet traffic.

The AirMux-200 pays for itself in no time by eliminating multiple leased line connections between buildings or the expense of laying fiber in the ground. Compared to just the monthly rental cost of leased lines, the AirMux-200 will provide ROI within a few months.

* Maximum transmission range over wireless is a function of the selected transmission rate, the services transported and the type of antenna used.
