The AirMux is a point-to-point multiplexer aggregating fractional E1 and Ethernet traffic over a 2.6 Mbps full duplex wireless link, extending data/voice transmission up to 25 miles(40 Km.). The AirMux can transmit a full E1/T1 (2 Mbps) of Ethernet traffic or a combination of fractional E1/T1 and Ethernet using direct sequence spread spectrum (W-CDMA), which also enhances security.
The unique capabilities of the AirMux in transporting both Ethernet/IP and TDM traffic over a wireless link make it ideal for a variety of applications, including:
- connection of LANs and PBXs at dispersed campus locations
- wireless backhauling of cellular base stations
- Wireless Local Loop (WLL)
The AirMux operates at 2.4 GHz, 5.15-5.35 GHz and 5.725–5.825 GHz. In many countries, 2.4 and 5.x GHz is an unlicensed frequency, allowing faster and more affordable deployment, since no frequency coordination and license fees are required. Intervals of 5 GHz bands enable a high quality of service, since they are not affected by harsh weather conditions such as fog and heavy rain, nor do they suffer from frequency congestion like the legacy 2.4 GHz bands.
The ability of the AirMux to transport both Ethernet/IP and TDM traffic over a wireless link makes it ideal for a variety of applications, including connectivity of LANs and PBXs at dispersed campus locations, wireless backhauling of cellular base stations and the Wireless Local Loop (WLL). License-free fixed wireless is also commonly used for backup links and disaster recovery as well as for temporary facilities such as army camps, construction sites and mining operations. The combination of LAN and E1/T1 interfaces on the AirMux saves the cost of an external multiplexer.
