Wireless Backhaul Microwave System

Files under Hardware, Networking, WIFI | Posted by calvyn

I not sure whether I am using the correct topic or not. I get this name “wireless backhaul” from search engine. I feel that almost similar meaning. Should be the system that I saw as the picture below.

Seen like telescope? My colleague told me use to spy on people in the bathroom :P

Last week, after I learn how to use the Agilent Cat-6 Tester, me and my colleague, bring the tester to new WAWASAN University building for testing, but who know the cat 6 cable termination process did not finish yet, 240 cat 6 cable need to punch in to 10 patch panel.

Will take about WHAT IS PATCH PANEL in the up comming post. Back to this Wireless Backhaul Microwave system, according to the IT personel… This device synchronize with TNB buildng in the town area, data from the server room will be transmit to TNB building for backup purpose. Any thing happed to the WAWASAN building, they still have backup on another side.

I saw this device have a URL www.proxim.com and I try to visit this website and look for infomation. I found this :

According to some of my IT friend, this device is using special frequency that need license. and our ISP are actually have this kind of service, but very expensive.

It is once if the WIFI signal frequency which WIFI frequency range are free of charges standard.

    lukxiufung > yes, this one using microwave, Bluetooth also using microwave system. But this kind of frequency won affect our body.

    chingy > the connector not the same, need to modify it. I also hope it can use to enhance my lousy Maxis signal.

    3POINT8 > They are using this to transfer their data to another premise, consider a backup system too. HOHO..the microwave will shoot on ur head too, will get cancel soon if too near it (Kidding only) :)
