This is an outdoor rated, long-range PTP wireless data bridge for carrier-grade enterprise applications. The radio operates at 5 GHz frequency, 802.11ac 2×2:2 (867 Mbps half-duplex rate). 700+ Mbps data throughput w/ W-Jet-V and ATPC. Dual gigabit Ethernet interfaces w/ IEEE 802.3af PoE passthrough. Integrated 23 dBi patch antenna for ease of installation. 2.4 GHz radio for management via mobile device. IP67. Metal enclosure. PoE injector and pole mount hardware included.
The Rapidfire antenna is a ultra high performance wireless bridge operating at 5 GHz. This point-to-point system has exceptional performance that delivers 700+ Mbps throughput. The carrier grade design with a simple and friendly user interface makes RapidFire an ideal device for high capacity and performance demanding links. Whether you are linking 2 building in the city, or have a short range connection through trees, this wireless bridge antenna will get the job done.
The Ligowave RapidFire antenna uses an integrated 23dBi panel antenna. With the combined high transmit power of this radio, if you are installing the antennas close to one another (less than 500 feet), it is recommended to cross polarize the antennas, and turn the transmit power to the minimum of 6 dBm. This will reduce transmit collisions, and keep the link operating at a more reliable throughput.
Powerful all in one hardware platform
New 1.2 GHz CPU dedicated for data processing delivers extremely high 250k PPS rate and swift performance of the PTP link. 2 x gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE pass-through allow building 1+1 (failover) or repeater links and also make PTP Rapidfire ideal for video surveillance scenarios. The ports are made according to 802.3at standard compliant.
An integrated surge and ESD protection is designed according to IEC standards and passes class 4 requirements.
Wireless configuration interface
Additional 2.4 GHz radio allows accessing your device wirelessly connecting with any type of device. This is extremely helpful when installing and setting up PTP links and then troubleshooting them in a difficult to reach conditions. Tests shown the radio is accessible even standing 20 meters away from a 10-story building when device is mounted on the top of the building.
Ultra High Performance
Wireless Bridge
700Mbps
A 5 GHz point-to-point system with exceptional performance that delivers 700+ Mbps throughput. The carrier grade design with a simple and friendly user interface makes RapidFire an ideal device for high capacity and performance demanding links.
Professional Design
Rock solid and easy to use mounting bracket ensures high wind-load survival and rapid deployment of the link. 45° integrated antenna tilt option increases flexibility when deploying links in a noisy areas. GORE-TEX gland allows pass-through of water vapor in humid conditions. Detachable handle makes it easy to carry the devices and works as additional tightening option of the device. Newly designed RGB LEDs indicate different devices statuses and signal level when aligning the antenna in 1 dBm step.
45°
Antenna Tilt Option
RapidFire can be rotated 45° to increase installation flexibility, which is extremely useful in noisy environments.
2.4 GHz radio
An internal 2.4 GHz radio allows access into the RapidFire GUI by wireless connection with any WIFI equipped device.
Support special exhibitionsCarrier grade surge protection.
RapidFire incorporates integrated surge and ESD protection according to IEC standards and passes Class 4 requirements.
2nd ETH port with PoE out
Equipped with two Gigabit Ethernet ports, one with PoE pass-through. The unit is ideal for repeater links and for security video surveillance installations.
Outstanding capacity
Extremely high 750 Mbps capacity and carrier grade performance is ensured by a professional and powerful RF design supporting up to 256QAM modulation and 31 dBi (combined) radio output power with a total system gain of 172 dB. Proprietary protocol for data transmission (W-Jet V) specifically engineered for the PTP scenario delivers high performance even on a long distance links with high interferences and stabilizes the latency to 2-4 ms range.
Infinity Controller
The Infinity Controller is a wireless network management platform currently available for the NFT series and which will soon be coming to the LigoDLB and LigoPTP series. The controller allows users to install, manage, and expand NFT Wi-Fi networks using automated device onboarding, predefined network scenarios, and other features. The Infinity Controller for the DLB and PTP series will enable users to simplify the way they build, expand, and maintain their wireless networks.
Powerful OS
The LigoPTP operating system ensures easy and rapid deployment of point-to-point links with stable, fast performance. An intuitive and responsive user interface adjusts the layout based on the size of your screen. Essential tools including Setup Wizard, link test, antenna alignment, spectrum analyzer, and site survey are included to make set-up and troubleshooting more efficient. Automatic mechanisms such as auto-channel and automatic transmit power control optimize the link for maximum performance even in areas with high interference.
