Frequently Asked Questions
What does point-to-point (PTP) mode mean for the R5AC-PTP?
Point-to-point mode means the R5AC-PTP is configured as one half of a dedicated link between two fixed locations, providing maximum throughput and range compared to multi-user modes.
What types of antennas pair with the R5AC-PTP base station?
The R5AC-PTP is designed to mount on RocketDish directional antennas, which you select separately based on desired range and beam pattern for your deployment.
How does the 720 MHz Atheros processor support reliable long-distance links?
The dedicated 720 MHz processor handles wireless transmission with minimal latency and packet loss, enabling stable 450 Mbps throughput even over extended point-to-point distances.
What is the 128 MB RAM used for in the R5AC-PTP?
The 128 MB RAM buffers packets and handles routing tables, ensuring smooth data flow and fast forwarding across the wireless link without bottlenecks.
Can the R5AC-PTP operate in Station mode for flexible network design?
Yes, the R5AC-PTP supports both Access Point and Station modes, allowing flexible network topologies where it can either originate links or relay traffic from other devices.
What throughput performance should I expect from an R5AC-PTP link?
The R5AC-PTP is rated for up to 450 Mbps throughput on optimized point-to-point links, with actual performance depending on distance, antenna gain, and RF environment.
How quickly can the R5AC-PTP be delivered to my site in the UAE?
Lead times depend on inventory and your location; contact Procure.ae for current delivery timelines on the R5AC-PTP base station.
What installation support is available for mounting the R5AC-PTP on RocketDish antennas?
Procure.ae can provide technical guidance on antenna selection and installation; reach out to discuss available support for your point-to-point deployment.
