Redline AN-50e Point to Point Radio
The Redline Access Node 50 (AN-50) is a high-performance fixed wireless Ethernet bridge
terminal system configurable to operate as a high-speed point-to-point link or optionally, as a
point-to-multipoint system (upcoming release). It provides the industry's first true low-cost
and scalable multi-service platform to support both backhaul and access functions from a
common equipment infrastructure and management system. The system can deliver over-
the-air rates of up to 72 Mbps, with a non-line-of-sight (NLOS) capability to address
challenging deployment scenarios.
The AN-50 operates in the license-exempt UNII band of 5.8 GHz and includes patented
technologies to address potential inter-cell interference issues. The system also features
dynamic adaptive modulation in both the upstream and downstream directions, automatically
selecting BPSK, QPSK, 16 or 64 QAM, depending on propagation conditions. This maximizes
spectral efficiency and hence revenue potential for a given deployment scenario. The system
features several antenna options to address deployment ranges of over 50 km (30 mi).
