3Roam makes carrier-class Gigabit wireless backhaul affordable for Internet Service Providers, WiMAX Operators and Private Networks
Sophia-Antipolis, November 8, 2010 – 3Roam, the innovator in advanced networking for high-capacity wireless IP transport, today introduces the WLS502 platform, its microwave Gigabit-class switch targeting ISPs, triple-play operators and private networks.
Supporting all interference-free frequencies in the licensed bands, from 6 GHz to 38 GHz, the WLS502 provides an all-in-a-box solution to transport highly demanding content, such as IPTV, video-surveillance alongside voice and data, with a throughput of up to 800 Mbps, over distances up to dozens of kilometers. The WLS502 is the alternative for 3Roam’s customers to renting expensive capacity from wholesale operators, with return on investment within the first year.
The WLS502 integrates two radio modems in a single half-rack unit, creating the lowest cost cross-polarization solution in the market. This dual-modem architecture is combined with 3Roam’s unique X-ATPC™ technology minimizing cross-polarization interferences, improving traffic aggregation and load-balancing intelligently between the two wireless interfaces, which is usually not possible when using separate single-modem equipments.
The WLS502 integrates seamlessly into any IP network, thanks to its 6 port Gigabit switch providing advanced VLAN and QoS management. Its end-to-end latency below one hundred microseconds also helps meet stringent requirements for voice communication and video transport.
The WLS502 is the cost efficient wireless alternative for Gigabit-class links, link protection or relay sites.
