Access Point (AP)
The Access Point (AP) is a
base station that can incorporate between one and twelve transceivers.
Each transceiver operates a 60-degree directional antenna to provide
coverage to one sector. Each AP transceiver delivers up to 6 Mbps of
data throughput (per subscriber) with connectivity to 200 subscribers.
Systems with more than three AP transceivers should use an AP
installation Kit which includes an Ethernet switch, AC power supply,
Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver with interconnect board; this
receiver is used to synchronize the transmissions of all APs to
minimize interference between APs. The AP operates with a Radio
frequency (RF) bit rate of 10Mbps and has a range of approximately two
or ten miles, depending on configuration. Each AP transceiver requires
a 24-volt power source (included in AP installation kit) and provides a
single 10/100 Base T connection.
