ExcelMAX Access Point

Overview

The ExcelMAX Access Point is a Point to Multipoint (PMP) base station product designed to operate in the 3.3-3.8 GHz spectrum and supports 3 different Duplex architectures – Full Duplex FDD (Frequency Division Duplex), Half Duplex FDD, and TDD (Time Division Duplex). The WiMAX (802.16-2004) compliant Non Line of Site (NLOS) platform supports a strong suite of Quality of Service (QoS) features and multiple services, which allow a service provider to offer different Service Level Agreements (SLAs) to hundreds of residential, SoHo, MDU and SME users from a single Access Point location.

Reasons to Buy ExcelMAX Access Point

ExcelMAX Access Point offers service providers an excellent return on investment. Its low cost, easy to deploy architecture allows service providers to generate revenues with a minimum investment in CAPEX and OPEX. Service providers can offer reliable, high quality, revenue generating applications (data, voice and video services) using specialized protocols such as Call Admission Control (CAC), SIP, and IGMP. The Access Point communicates with different ExcelMax CPEs (Outdoor and Indoor) installed in business and residential premises. The mature platform has been deployed in large data, voice and video networks and ensures reliable operations in the field. Axxcelera provides a suite of management, installation, provisioning and configuration tools, which make the installation, and maintenance of the Access Point extremely simple.
