R5000-Qmxb
InfiNet Wireless is pleased to announce the new R5000-Qmxb base station sector is now available globally, as well as the new InfiLINK XG models operating in the 3 and 4 GHz frequency bands. Purchase orders for the new products can be placed immediately, with shipping expected within your usual delivery timescales.
The Qmxb is a base station sector with an integrated antenna featuring our cutting-edge beamforming technology. It is a part of the InfiMAN 2x2 Point-to-Multipoint wireless family operating in 5 GHZ frequency band (order number is R5000-Qmxb/5.300.2x300.2x21).
The key advantages of this new product are a major increase in the link stability and a significant improvement in network capacity – twofold or even more. The Qmxb market launch was first announced at the end of May 2017, and we have received excellent feedback and performance results from some of our key customers who deployed the products in their networks both in fixed and nomadic applications.
Please note that the Qmxb supports TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) air protocol only. Therefore, if you are planning to upgrade an existing network which uses the adaptive marker access MINT protocol, it needs to be upgraded to TDMA via a software license (see details in the document "How to upgrade your network from MINT to TDMA").
Please see InfiMAN 2x2 Qmxb datasheet on the product page on the official InfiNet Wireless website for more information, and the User Manual for the operating procedures and guidelines.
