Proxim New Products
The Stratum X3 - 5GHz is a highly efficient and secure MIMO 2x2 outdoor wireless solution capable of throughput up to 1 Gbps.
Stratum X3 models are multi-purpose radios, designed to operate in each of the following modes:

- Point-to-Point endpoint
- Point-to-Multipoint CPE
- Point-to-Multipoint Base Station (2-64 client support requires a license upgrade)
Both connectorized and integrated antenna models are available, and all models are housed in IP67-rated metal enclosures and operate from -40 to +140oF.
- Wide Band Radio - 5.150-5.850 GHz
- AES 128-bit encryption is upgradeable to 256-bit
- 20, 40 and 80 MHz channels
- Full tilt and swivel mounting kit included
Advanced Interference Management
To achieve peak performance in challenging RF environments characterized by dense unlicensed radio usage and significant interference, the Stratum X3 - 5GHz utilizes our highly efficient WORP® (Wireless Outdoor Router Protocol).
Proxim ClearConnect®, a crucial component of WORP®, provides effective interference management.

Security
Over the air transmission is secured via 128-bit AES encryption, with an option to upgrade to 256-bit when ultra-high security is desired.
Rugged Reliability
Stratum X3 features a robust IP67-rated metal enclosure designed to provide dependable performance over many years, even in severe conditions including strong winds, high salt exposure, and extreme temperatures.
Proxim WORP®
WORP® is a dynamic, asynchronous protocol designed to optimize the performance of outdoor wireless point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless links. WORP's asynchronous nature allows the uplink and downlink to adapt to network traffic demands dynamically.
In a WORP® powered network, a base station autonomously handles on-demand bandwidth allocation and quality of service (QoS) settings based on the specific requirements of each client within the network.

Flexible and Secure Management Options
Management options include Proxim BlueConnect[tm]; our Bluetooth-enabled mobile management application; TLS 1.3 web GUI, SSH 2.0 CLI, and SNMP v3 for ProximVision Advanced, and other network management solutions.
Proxim Featured Products
The Stratum[tm] X5 is the first in a new series of ultra-high-performance point-to-point and Point to Multipoint radio endpoints.
The Stratum[tm] X5 is a 5 GHz, MIMO 4x4 point-to-point radio with greater than 1.5 Gbps throughput, and ideally suited to high capacity backhaul applications.
The 4x4 MIMO radio offers two significant benefits:
- In MIMO 4x4:4 mode, a 20MHz channel will double the throughput compared to the typical MIMO 2x2:2 point-to-point systems available today.
- In MIMO 4x4:2 mode, antenna diversity enables two mirrored data streams that improve radio stability in harsh environments.

Other Features Include:
- Up to 1.58 Gbps Throughput
- Wide Band Radio - 5.150-5.850 GHz
- 2.5G Ethernet with optional 10G SFP+ optical transceiver cage
- AES 128-bit encryption is upgradeable to 256-bit
- Full tilt and swivel mounting kit included
Flexible Antenna Options
The SX5-1042A is a flexible variant that includes an integrated quad polarity panel antenna, plus software selectable connectors for external antennas.
Model SX5-1040A is a connectorized unit purpose build for external quad polarity antennas where specific antenna patterns or gain adjustments are needed.
Proxim Wireless WORP Sync
WORP Sync - The First Common Synchronization Technology
With the growing demand for outdoor wireless applications and limited license-free spectrum, there exists a clear and growing deficit of available interference-free frequencies. Large scale wireless Internet service providers (ISPs) and organizations with dense networks are compelled to reuse the limited available spectrum, often resulting in high self-interference, poor Quality of Service (QoS), and reduced throughput.
Proxim with its new WORP Sync feature helps overcome these challenges by allowing efficient collocation of more and more radios at a cell site. To understand how this is accomplished let us first take a look into synchronous absent aka asynchronous network topology.
Conversely, WORP Sync coordinates the transmit timing between all the BSUs within a network. The timing mechanism used as a clock for these synchronous networks is either a satellite signal or other clock sources such as ethernet synchronization modules. This ensures all BSUs within a geography where they may interfere with each other transmit and receive at the exact same time. This applies not only to BSUs on the same tower, but all BSUs within a given area that can potentially “hear” each other and hence improper timing can corrupt Tx and Rx data streams.
