Frequencies and Applications

What is the difference between backhaul, multiple access and mesh?

Backhaul solutions are optimized for fixed point to point connections. Longest range and highest success rates. Typically 900Mhz or 5.8GHz.

WiFi Multiple Access solutions are optimized to support several simultaneous device as mobile locations. Great for surfing. Typically 2.4GHz.

Fixed Multiple Access solutions are optimized to support several simultaneous device as fixed locations. Great for surveillance applications. Typically 5.8GHz.

Cellular systems are versatile but require monthly fees. They are relatively inexpensive to buy and install. Specialized radios with high quality antennae at elevated locations have best success. Busy populated venues often have throughput issues. Various licensed frequencies used.

Mesh systems require high radio node density. They are relatively expensive to buy and install. Smaller node counts have better success and higher throughputs. Typically 5.8GHz.

Robust against interference?

How does the system handle interference?

In band and out of band?

How easy is the system to intentionally jam?

Is the system able to autonomously coexist or remotely manages?

Is a truck roll required to perform a site survey and change channel?
