MA-860 Wi-Fi Remote Module

The MA-860 module enables 802.11b/g and 802.11a Wi-Fi signals to be combined with other wireless services for simultaneous distribution over the MobileAccess Universal Wireless Network.

 

The MA-860 WLAN Module

The MA-860 can be deployed in a stand-alone mode for Wi-Fi only environments, or it can be connected to other MobileAccess elements (MA-1000/2000) to deliver Wi-Fi along with other wireless services including cellular/PCS, public safety, and WMTS.  A self calibration procedure between the MA-860 and MobileAccess Wi-Fi Coverage Expanders (WCE) ensures optimal coverage for 802.11a/b/g WLAN services.

MA-860 Core Benefits:

  • Cost Effective Multi-Service Solution
    • Delivers WLAN and other wireless signals over a single multi-service infrastructure
    • Spreads WLAN deployments costs across multiple wireless services 
  • Centralized & Secure AP Management
    • 802.11 access points (APs) connect to the MA-860 in telecom closets making them more secure and easier to manage than in conventional Wi-Fi deployments
    • Centralized, secure management lowers overall operating expenses 
  • Dependable WLAN Coverage
    • One click compensation ensures optimal 802.11b/g and 802.11a coverage
    • Dedicated AP to antenna relationships ensure transparent support for WLAN applications such as VOIP and location services (RTLS)
    • Redundant power option mitigates single point of failure concern
  • Proactive End-to-End Monitoring
    • Proactive SNMP monitoring of the MA-860 based Wi-Fi infrastructure for status, alerting, and fault detection
    • Monitoring extends to attached multi-service antennas
  • Simplified IT Deployment Model
    • Leverages standard WLAN design techniques to achieve a multi-service solution
