Airmux 200 инструкция на русском

Airmux-200 – высокопроизводительный, недорогой мультиплексор операторского класса, предназначенный для соединения сетей E1/T1 и Ethernet по радиоканалам по схеме «точка-точка». Устройство соответствует требованиям FCC, CAN/CSA и ETSI для работы в нелицензируемых частотных диапазонах. Airmux -200 может использоваться в диапазонах 2.4 ГГц, 4.9 ГГц и 5.x ГГц, а также в диапазоне 2.5 ГГц BRS. Использование радиоканала позволяет корпоративным пользователям сэкономить на цене выделенных линий, а поставщикам услуг — не прокладывать оптоволоконные кабели. Таким образом, обеспечивается быстрое развертывание сетевой инфраструктуры E1/T1 и Ethernet при низких затратах.

Устройство состоит из наружного и внутреннего блоков, соединенных Ethernet кабелем Cat- 5e для наружного применения, позволяющим размещать блоки на расстоянии до 100 метров друг от друга. Наружное устройство поставляется со встроенной антенной или с коннектором для внешней антенны.

Airmux -200 мультиплексирует до четырех неструктурированных каналов E1 или T1 и трафик портов Ethernet для передачи по радиоканалу с полосой пропускания в 48 Мбит/с. Это соответствует полезной нагрузке 18 Мбит/с по полному дуплексу. Максимальная дальность работы устройства составляет 80 км, а максимальная производительность зависит от расстояния и от разрешенного диапазона частот.

Встроенный мост 10/100BaseT Ethernet прозрачным образом пересылает фреймы и запоминает до 2000 MAC адресов. Tочное восстановление синхронизации E1/T1, низкая двусторонняя задержка и высокая готовность канала превращают Airmux -200 в систему передачи операторского класса.

В Airmux -200 реализованы механизмы защиты радиоканала от несанкционированного доступа. Алгоритм шифрования AES и динамическая смена ключей исключает возможность подслушивания. Дополненные кодированной отметкой времени (CCM), эти механизмы предотвращают вмешательство подставного передатчика в работу канала. Система сетевого управления и сами устройства защищены паролями и применением схемы “запрос-ответ”.

Управление каналом в устройстве Airmux -200 может осуществляться с помощью приложения на основе Windows, поставляемого вместе с устройством.

Eсли необходимо управлять большим числом каналов с центральной платформы, можно заказать систему управления отказами RADview на базе SNMP. Все параметры конфигурации настраиваются по соединениям, что упрощает инсталляцию и обслуживание.

Airmux-200 — отличное решение для соединения удаленных корпоративных офисов, базовых станций сотовых сетей, предоставления услуг широкополосного доступа и подключения хот-спотов.

Airmux-200 также работает в режиме Power over Ethernet для услуг Ethernet и в конфигурации «многоточка-точка» с совместным размещением нескольких устройств.

  Chapter 1 Introduction PoE-8 Airmux-200 PoE-8 is an IDU for collocated Ethernet applications. It features 8 Ethernet ports, 8 decoupled ports of ODU, 2 outputs of dry contact alarms, and receives power by AC, DC, or both as either AC input or DC input – 20V — 60V.

• Page 36: Functional Description

  It converts 100–240 VAC to -48 VDC, and sends it on to the ODU. The IDU does not store any configuration data. Therefore, there is no need for additional configuration of the Airmux-200 system when replacing an IDU. • IDU-R: The unit monitors the status of leased lines, and in the event of a connection failure automatically switches to the radio link.

• Page 142: Replacing An Odu

  Q: When using the Airmux-200, what is the potential for interference between our system and other cellular or wireless network devices? A: The Airmux-200 is a robust system. However since it operates in unlicensed band there maybe some interference. Nevertheless, the fact that we can manually set the frequency gives us the flexibility to find a clear channel.

• Page 143
  Q: Can we use horizontal and vertical polarization on the same frequency to double the number of wireless links? A: Installing two Airmux-200 systems in the same band with cross polarization provides 20–25 dB separations. Nevertheless, since there are reflections, the cross polarization separation is decreased and spatial separation is recommended.
• Page 144
  [dB] Q: Does Airmux-200 withhold any MAC Addresses? A: The Airmux-200 is a layer 2 Bridge (VLAN transparent). The built-in switch contains a MAC Address table up to 2047. Q: Can I use any category 5e cable in order to connect the IDU and ODU? A: The cable should be suitable for outdoor use, and shielded Category 5e.
