a certification mark for products that pass conformity
and interoperability tests for the IEEE 802.16e
and ETSI HiperMAN standards. WiMAX is a standards-based
wireless technology that provides high-throughput
broadband connections over long distances. WiMAX
can be used for a number of applications, including "last
mile" broadband connections, hotspots and
cellular backhaul, and high-speed enterprise connectivity
for business.
The WiMAX PC-Card is a Point to Multipoint (PMP)
CPE which is an 802.16e-2005 compliant system designed
based on WiMAX SOC. It operates at 2.5 ~ 2.7 GHz
spectrum and supports a Duplex TDD (Time Division
Duplex) architecture. The PC-Card can be installed
on a post or external fixture for extended coverage,
it is intended for indoor deployment where enterprise
and residential users connect to Internet and perform
bandwidth-hunger applications such as video download
and video streaming.
The deployment architecture of the WiMAX PC-Card
WIXS-140 is depicted in the following figure.
