The ion4xls is a 1 Gbps small form factor UBR designed to simplify logistics and deployment. Its compact, lightweight design reduces tower loading and enables you to install high-capacity links in space-constrained locations. The device is engineered to deliver gigabit speeds while its small size helps to reduce infrastructure costs and simplify deployment in challenging terrains like dense urban environments or remote rural areas. This approach can lead to a 50% faster network expansion and significant cost reduction by minimizing the need for expensive fiber laying.
The ion4xls is an energy-efficient solution that helps reduce operational costs and environmental impact. It is designed to be highly efficient, consuming less than 15W of power while maintaining its high-performance capacity. This energy efficiency, combined with its quick deployment capabilities and reduced infrastructure costs, makes it a valuable alternative to traditional solutions.
The ion4xls point to point UBR features a comprehensive security suite that includes 256-bit AES encryption and support for WPA, WPA2, and WPA3 for both Personal and Enterprise networks. This ensures secure data transmission and protects against unwanted threats in the wireless communication ecosystem. The device also simplifies operations with intelligent management features like the Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP), which enables real-time performance measurement of links, and Y.1731-BNM, for real-time bandwidth monitoring.
The ion4xls is built for extreme durability and is IP67-certified for outdoor ingress protection, allowing it to sustain challenging weather conditions. It can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 55°C (for the extended temperature variant) and is designed to withstand wind loads up to 180 km/hour. The device also includes 4kV surge protection via its PoE port to safeguard against power fluctuations.
The ion4xls is equipped with smart features to reduce operational complexity and aid in troubleshooting. The Dying Gasp feature sends a final notification before the device loses power, saving significant time for the operations team. It also includes a GPS-enabled system to assist with network planning and new installations from a central location. An in-built temperature sensor continuously monitors the radio's temperature, allowing for proactive management to prevent potential damage.
A Point-to-Point (P2P) radio creates a dedicated, one-to-one wireless connection between two specific locations, such as two buildings or a central hub and a remote tower. This type of link is often used to extend a network or provide a high-capacity backhaul where running fiber is not feasible. Our P2P UBRs offer fiber-like speeds without the cost or complexity of a physical cable.
