Cambium Networks’ 60 GHz cnWave solution provides simple, fast and cost-effective gigabit wireless connectivity for edge access and/or high capacity backhaul for edge access solutions at a significantly lower total cost of ownership than fibre infrastructure. Service providers and enterprises now have access to gigabit for business and residential connectivity, backhaul for Wi-Fi access or LTE/5G small cells. The Facebook Terragraph certified cnWave mesh solutions are highly efficient in handling high-density deployments in cities and suburbs.

Details
V5000 is a 60 GHz access point unit with two sector antennas with a 2x 140° beam angle (20° in vertical direction), an antenna gain of 22.5 dBi and the ability to connect 4 distribution nodes or up to 30 CPE units. The device has a total of 2 Ethernet ports and an optical SFP+ slot. The first port supports 100M/1G and 10G speeds, including passive PoE IN 44-57V DC, and the second Gigabit port also supports PoE Out with the 802.3at standard, which is particularly suitable for powering cameras. The wireless part supports two bandwidths: 2160 MHz and 4320 MHz (future firmware), the actual connection speed is 7.6 Gbps (3.8 Gbps downlink, 3.8 Gbps uplink) and supports PtMP, Mesh or PTP wireless modes. The maximum power consumption of the device is 35 W, which can be up to 60 W when using PoE Out.

The device can be managed via the web interface or the cnMaestro™ cloud element management system to simplify deployment, monitoring and updates. Network planning with LINKPlanner.
