Higher Capacity and Lower Costs than
Leased Lines

 

The Introduction:

Within enterprises and public sector organizations, IT managers are searching for the most cost-effective and rapidly deployable solution for increasing bandwidth and connecting LANs in different buildings or campuses. Historically, there have been primarily two choices: leasing telco lines or provisioning private fiber connections. Both present serious drawbacks in cost, deployment time, reliability, and their dependence on third-party networks.


More speed, reliability, and cost-savings

Now there is a better solution. Proxim’s Tsunami® family of wireless Ethernet bridges deliver more bandwidth for multibuilding and campus environments: quickly, cost effectively, and without the degradation of service associated with leased solutions. Working with any router or switch, Tsunami wireless Ethernet bridges ensure high-capacity LANto-LAN connectivity to support today’s growing IP needs.


Eliminate bandwidth bottlenecks

Leased circuits typically connect buildings at relatively slower speeds than the high-speed LANs that are used within buildings. The low capacity of the leased line can cause bandwidth bottlenecks and a serious degradation in service. Tsunami® wireless Ethernet bridges eliminate these bottlenecks by providing a high capacity link between buildings.


Suggested Products:

  • Tsunami® MP-10100L Series
  • Tsunami® QB-10100L Series
  • Tsunami® GX-824
   
Application Notes-Higher Capacity and Lower Costs than Leased Lines

Achieve wireline networking speeds and 99.999% availability

Tsunami® wireless Ethernet bridges enable high capacity wireless connections, from less than one mile to more than 40 miles, without performance degradation. Tsunami® wireless bridges enable carrier class delivery of IP services with full wire-speed performance and the 99.999% reliability IT professionals demand.


Gain a rapid return on your investment

With deployment in days, rather than the weeks or months typically needed to install leased lines, Tsunami® offers a solution that provides a speedy return on your investment. You no longer need to establish an interface with telco WANs, eliminating the cost of additional “boxes.” Since Tsunami® preserves native IP throughout the system, you can avoid the cost of T1/E1 or DS-3 cards and their CSU/DSU interfaces in your switches and routers. Because you own the connection— and not lease it— ROI is maximized and you gain the peace of mind of having control over your own infrastructure.

Stop waiting for the telephone company

Tsunami® provides a true plug-and-play solution which can be deployed within days. License-exempt wireless technology can be deployed much more rapidly than leased line alternatives. Without regulatory delays, radio spectrum ownership issues or waiting for trenching or other telco provisioning, it is possible to create wireless LAN-to-LAN links in just a day or two.


Accomplish your objectives

Tsunami® is ideal for applications including:

  • Building-to-building connectivity (LAN to LAN)
  • Campus-to-campus connectivity (WAN)
  • Fiber redundancy and media diversity to enhance reliability and uptime

Network Overview

Tsunami® wireless Ethernet bridges provide a portfolio of distance and capacity points using either Tsunami 10BaseT, 100BaseT/F or 1000BaseSX products. For example, a pair of Tsunami® 100BaseT/F wireless Ethernet bridges provide a Fast Ethernet connection between any two routers or switches. Rooftop mounted antennas are cabled to the indoor mounted Tsunami® bridges. The bridges interface directly to the 100BaseTX or 100BaseFX ports on the switches or routers. Tsunami® bridges provide seamless data link layer (Layer 2) connectivity, transparent to the ports on the switch or router. This configuration preserves native IP throughout the connection, eliminating conversion between interfaces.


Tsunami: A Broad Solution Offering

The Tsunami® family of wireless Ethernet bridges provides a wide range of distance and capacity solutions to meet your connectivity needs. The family consists of three product lines: the Tsunami® 1000BaseSX, the Tsunami® 100BaseT/F and the Tsunami® 10BaseT. Products within each product line vary in capacity and frequency (see table below).


  Tsunami® 1000Basesx Tsunami® 100Base T/F Tsunami® 10BaseT
Agregate Capacity >840Mbps 206MBps, 93MBps 24MBps, 16MBps
Frequency 5.3, 5.8GHz 5.3, 5.8GHz 2.4, 2.8GHz
