Proxim Wireless provides 300 Mbps wireless connectivity with the Tsunami 8100 product line

Proxim Wireless Corporation, a leading provider of complete indoor and outdoor wireless broadband ecosystems, has announced the Tsunami™ QB-8100 point-to-point (PtP) and the Tsunami™ MP-8100 point-to-multipoint (PtMP) products for wireless backhaul and connectivity for systems requiring wire-like bandwidth. The new Tsunami product family combines MIMO and OFDM technologies with Proxim's Wireless Outdoor Routing Protocol (WORP) to provide best-in-class wireless connectivity for everything from building-to-building connectivity, IP video surveillance backhaul, and connectivity for other bandwidth intensive applications.

"With the Tsunami MP-8100 and QB-8100 solutions, Proxim gives system integrators of all types and sizes a platform with the flexibility to support a multitude of applications," said Sean Muir, Senior RF Engineer - Network Design,of Networks by Wireless, Ltd.

With these new products, Proxim is offering high-performance wireless backhaul and connectivity solutions that exceed 300 Mbps performance at the most competitive price point in the market. As a result, these products are capable of supporting more bandwidth intensive applications (like HD video surveillance, wireless ITS, and more) simultaneously with a single CPE.

Proxim's Tsunami QB-8100 and MP-8100 provide the ideal wireless solution for a number of applications, including:

• Building-to-building connectivity with easy-to-deploy wireless backhaul
• Wireless backhaul for WISPs and 4G networks
• Wireless connectivity for IP video surveillance networks
• Connectivity for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and other bandwidth-intensive applications

Features of the Tsunami QB-8100 PtP and the Tsunami MP-8100 PtMP solutions include:

Performance and range

• Over 100 Mbps performance. Performance is per link for PtP applications, and per sector for PtMP applications.
