Motorola (News - Alert) has unveiled its 5.4 GHz Canopy Point-to- Multipoint (PMP) and Point-to-Point (PTP) wireless broadband solutions in the United States and Canada.

 

Both the Canopy 5.4 GHz and the 5.4 GHz PTP 400 & 600 Series Integrated Systems are designed to integrate with other wireless systems in the 5 GHz spectrum.

 

The launch of 5.4 GHz Canopy Point-to- Multipoint (PMP) and Point-to-Point (PTP) wireless broadband solutions is a part of the MOTOwi4 portfolio, which promises to offer network operators, enterprises, government, and commercial customers the ability to access additional spectrum, along with bandwidth-intensive data, voice and video communications.

 

As the industry is faces huge traffic increases, The FCC (News - Alert) recently opened the 5.4 GHz radio frequency (RF) for commercial use, making more spectrums available to meet the growing demands for bandwidth.

 

The 5.4 GHz spectrum offers 255 MHz of bandwidth. These new broadband solutions released by Motorola offer reliable, high-bandwidth and high-speed connectivity to support convergent, multimedia applications such as data transfer, Voice over IP (VoIP), video surveillance and audio downloads. Moreover, wherever the wired access is not possible or not effective, these solutions provide a backhaul solution for Canopy PMP and mesh networks and PTP links.

 

"Our network infrastructure currently consists of Canopy Point-to-Multipoint access modules and the Point-to-Point product for backhaul. The introduction of Motorola's 5.4 GHz unlicensed solutions will provide us with additional opportunities to leverage this newly available spectrum," said Brian Magnuson, president, Cascade Networks, Inc. "These products bring more opportunities and greater flexibility as more radios can co-locate on existing infrastructure."
