Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between point-to-point and point-to-multipoint deployments with the R5AC Lite?
Point-to-point creates a direct link between two devices; point-to-multipoint allows one base station to serve multiple remote clients. The R5AC Lite supports both modes for flexible network design.
How does TDMA scalability benefit a large wireless network?
TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) allocates time slots to each client, preventing collisions and maintaining network efficiency as the number of connected devices grows. This ensures stable performance even as the network scales.
What latency improvements does airOS 8 provide?
airOS 8 includes optimizations for lower latency and faster responsiveness compared to earlier versions. For specific latency figures in your deployment, contact Procure.ae.
Is the R5AC Lite suitable for outdoor campus network coverage?
Yes, the airMAX ac BaseStation technology and TDMA scalability make it ideal for providing coverage across large outdoor campuses or remote areas with many client devices.
Can the R5AC Lite operate in both licensed and unlicensed spectrum?
The R5AC Lite operates on the unlicensed 5 GHz band. For regulatory details specific to your GCC deployment location, contact Procure.ae.
