Ubiquiti
Ubiquiti is an American manufacturer of professional and highly scalable WLAN solutions. We always use Ubiquiti when it comes to setting up comprehensive WLAN over several floors or long distances. Ubiquiti currently holds the world record with its AirFiberX products and still delivers a bandwidth of 155Mbit per second over a distance of 225 kilometres!
airFibre is primarily intended for Internet providers who want to implement wireless connections. The technology operates in the free frequency range of 24 GHz and realises a data throughput of over 1.4 GBit/s. At the same time, airFibre is significantly cheaper than laying fibre optic cables. The maximum range of the radio relay connections is 14 kilometres.
Ubiquiti Networks relies on a dual-antenna design that allows the use of techniques such as Frequency Division Duplex, Time Division Duplex and Ubiquiti's patent-pending Hybrid Division Duplex mode. The low latency times are also achieved over longer distances by both communication partners sending packets simultaneously so that the receiver does not have to wait until a packet has arrived. Ubiquiti equips the modules with flexible FPGAs so that the system can be optimised later with firmware updates. Installation of the combined receiver and transmitter modules is very simple thanks to an RSSI indicator and can be carried out by a single person. Thanks to integrated GPS receivers, position and timing parameters are calculated automatically.
