RoamAD Publishes Multi-Radio Wi-Fi Mesh Node Assembly Guide
-/January 11, 2006 - Wi-Fi Technology News/-RoamAD, has published an easy to follow interactive guide which shows how to assemble a robust, cost-effective, multi-radio wireless network node/mesh AP. The APs can run 4 radios being any combination of IEEE 802.11a/b/g and be used for point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, multipoint-to-multipoint, and mesh networking options.
RoamAD supplies a wireless networking software platform for converged wireless networks operating over multi-radio wireless nodes. RoamAD's wide-area wireless network solution is the most flexible, cost-effective, carrier-grade solution available today.
The RoamAD solution is used for large-scale metro/muni Wi-Fi wireless networks, campus hotzones and hotspots, railway/highway wireless networks as well as for wireless backhaul. Carriers, ISPs, utility companies, municipalities and OEMs all use RoamAD's technology and RoamAD based networks have been deployed in 10 countries.
RoamAD's evolutionary business model is a paradigm shift in wide-area wireless networking. The company has taken advantage of the availability of standards-based, modular, multi-radio node components. RoamAD software supports a range of modular radio and network node components and it has published the node design and guide to allow cost-effective and easy assembly of wireless nodes. When running RoamAD's wireless networking software platform, the nodes are remotely upgradeable.
RoamAD's roadmap includes 802.16 WiMAX and cellular/Wi-Fi integration in accordance with UMA/3GPP.
This hardware assembly guide is for the x86 platform version and will shortly be followed by the XScale platform version.
