Mobile Roaming Enables New ApplicationsProxim innovation delivers another wireless industry first - mobile roaming of Subscriber Units (SU) between Base Station Units (BSU). Public safety first responder networks, transportation system monitoring and telemetry and mobile security and surveillance are now all possible with a low cost, robust system.
- Fast handoff at speeds up to 200 km per hour (120 miles per hour)
- Customizable roaming parameter maintains minimum bandwidth required for application performance
Adaptive Wireless Network Optimizes PerformanceUsing advanced OFDM technology and Wireless Outdoor Routing Protocol (WORP), 5054-R networks dynamically adapt to the ever-changing network load for optimum performance.
- WORP adapts to avoid collisions and maximizes data content with each transmission
- Dynamic Data Rate Selection automatically compensates for temporary link degradation maintaining robust connectivity and mitigating service calls
Advanced Security Protects PrivacyMultiple security mechanisms protect operator, residential customer and enterprise privacy.
- Weatherized enclosure allows colocation on rooftops – limiting physical access Proxim’s Wireless Outdoor Routing Protocol (WORP) prevents snooping common to Wi-Fi systems
- Advanced encryption protects over-the-air transmission
- Intracell blocking forbids direct communication between Subscriber Units
- BSU and SU mutual authentication eliminates unauthorized use of system by rogue SUs and man-in-the middle attacks
- Password protection of all remote management methods
Designed for Fast Installation and Lower Maintenance CostThe 5054-R incorporates hardware and software features that reduce labor costs associated with initial deployment and post-sales maintenance.
- Decrease Subscriber Unit configuration time with integrated and dual-polarized 23-dBi antennas
- Eliminate guess work in locating the remote antennas with audible tone and real-time signal strength measurements
- Support for both local and remote management, removing the need for expensive on-site supports
Investment Protection for Current Tsunami MP.11 Model 5054 (MP.11a) customersBoth the 5054 and the 5054-R can be deployed together with full interoperability and backward compatibility.
- No new training required with identical software and user interfaces
- Common accessories such as antennas, cables and surge arrestors reduce spare inventory
- Expanding a 5054 network by adding new 5054-Rs can be done incrementally and non-disruptively
Applications:
- Emergency First Responders Critical information delivery such as medical data and video feeds during in-progress events performance that scales from 6 to 36 Mbps, all selectable via simple user interfaces
- Enterprise Campus Connectivity Extend main network to remote branch offices, warehouses or other out buildings without leased line
- Mobile Hot Spot On-demand entertainment and broadband access solutions for ferry, transit busses and railway system commuters cost-effective last mile access, security and surveillance

- Security and Surveillance Wireless solutions for bandwidth-intensive and high-definition IP surveillance cameras located at important city and transportation infrastructure such as airports, bridges and trains
- Business and Residential Last Mile Access Competitive broadband service alternative to DSL or cable modems for residences and T1 or Ethernet for businesses
- Metropolitan Area Networks Secure and reliable connectivity between city buildings

Proxim Tsunami MP.11 Model 5054-R Specifications

|
Near line of sight capable |
Line of sight and near line of sight connectivity extends deployment flexibility in rural as well as high-density urban areas |
|
Highest performance per cell |
Supports 6 sectors per cell with an aggregate data rate of 324 Mbps and throughput of 180 Mbps |
|
Dense subscriber support per cell |
Supports up to 1,500 subscribers with 6 sectors |
|
Guaranteed data rate while roaming |
Allows bandwidth-intensive applications, such as high-definition video streaming, in mobile environments |
|
SECURITY |
|
Unicast, multicast and broadcast storm control |
User definable threshold levels prevent excessive bandwidth consumptions from degrading network performance |
|
Packet filtering |
