The B5c Backhaul is changing the game. Leveraging 802.11ac, 4x4:4 MIMO and radical engineering for service providers that demand the same capacity, speed and reliability as fiber. With 1.7 Gbps PHY and a unique spin on reliability, the B5c is re-defining gigabit wireless technology.
The B5c is capable of 1 Gbps throughput, a low 2 ms latency. The B5c can be paired with any dual-polarized antenna and is operational from 4900-6000 MHz.
The B5c brings with it an entirely new set of features never seen before in the outdoor wireless market.
Dual Link revolutionizes backhaul reliability by load balancing across two non-contiguous channels to avoid outages due to interference. If one channel experiences interference the radio maintains connection while simultaneously searching for new replacement channel.
Additionally, Dual Link adds value by easing difficulties when searching for available spectrum in congested areas. Now, bandwidth can be split across two different channels. Experience the same throughput, with less complication.
Auto Everything
Wireless interference can change in an instant, and your network needs to adapt. The Mimosa B5 offers constant spectrum analysis with historical and real-time data to dynamically make smarter decisions dynamically.
The Auto Everything feature will automatically adjust frequency, channel width and power levels based on environmental feedback. This feature can be turned off for users that prefer more control.
Local and Network-Wide Spectrum Recycling
With scarce spectrum and lots of traffic to transmit, colocation of devices is a must. While this has been a constant struggle for most of the products on the market, the B5 takes an advanced approach. Using standard GPS and GLONASS for sync, we can ensure that all radios on the network are transmitting and receiving at the same time to avoid any interference. For even more protection, we use the most advanced RF isolation on the market, allowing radios to operate in close proximity to one another.
