Outdoor Wireless

`The design and delivery of outdoor wireless networks presents greater challenges when compared to indoor wireless networks. Our years of experience delivering point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and outdoor wireless mesh networks makes DigitalAir Wireless one of only few companies with the specialist knowledge and skillset needed for the successful deployment of outdoor wireless solutions.

A quality network design is paramount when deploying outdoor networks. DigitalAir Wireless specialises in three main design topologies.

 

Point-to-Point Wireless

A point-to-point wireless network provides a network connection between two locations. Essentially a virtual cable in the air, point-to-point wireless networks can operate in both unlicensed and licenced frequencies. Network speeds range from 100Mbps up to 4Gbps full-duplex.

Point-to-Point Wireless

Typical point-to-point applications include

  • Leased line replacement
  • Building-to-building links
  • Fibre replacement
  • Secondary/redundant connections

Point-to-Multipoint Wireless

A point-to-multipoint wireless network interconnects multiple locations to one or more central locations. Like point-to-point networks, point-to-multipoint networks can operate in both unlicensed and licenced frequencies with speeds up to 300Mbps. A point-to-multipoint wireless solution can be a cost-effective replacement for multiple leased lines that need to terminate at central locations.

Point-to-Multipoint Wireless

Typical point-to-multipoint applications include:

  • Connecting multiple sites to a central location
  • Leased line replacement
  • Fibre replacement
  • CCTV solutions

Wireless Mesh Networks

A wireless mesh network delivers a scalable, self-healing network made up of wireless nodes. Each wireless node negotiates a connection with neighbouring wireless nodes to form a single backhaul network. Mesh networks are an ideal solution for client connectivity in large outdoor environments, where cabling is not readily available or too costly to install.

Wireless Mesh

Typical mesh applications include:

  • Campus-wide wireless connectivity
  • Public-access Wi-Fi
  • Caravan and campsite Wi-Fi
  • Locations that cannot be cabled
