Product Overview

Cambium Networks PTP 550

Multicore Gigabit Radio – Performance in the presence of Interference

PTP

Product Highlights

The PTP is a point-to-point Gigabit throughput solution based on the gigabit capacity needs for high-speed backhaul solutions in mid- attributes from Cambium Networks’ point to point products such as PTP

802.11 ac Wave operating in GHz wireless space, addressing and long-range applications. The PTP solution draws its 650/670 and PTP 450i.

Metal Housing

Each PTP radio is enclosed in a rugged IP66/67-rated metal enclosure, solar radiation.

way of installing PTP 550.

for flexibility in channel selection, band selection, and address achieves 1.4 Gbps.

Antenna Alignment

The e-alignment GUI provides the installer with an accurate and reliable

optimize the channel of operation to maximize link reliability and will search for the clearest spectrum and move to it limited spectrum in the most challenging environments.

Ideal Applications

High-capacity wireless backhaul replacing leased lines between towers, buildings, and campuses. Mobile network backhaul and enterprise campus connectivity requiring carrier-grade link reliability.
