Wireless Internet Service Provider (ISP/WISP) Solutions
Wireless Backhaul Infrastructure and Last-mile Wireless Broadband
The Web has become so rich with multimedia content that ISP and WISP networks everywhere are being overwhelmed with a rising demand for bandwidth. Regardless of your deployment area whether it is urban, suburban, or rural broadband wireless Internet access (BWIA) solutions and wireless backhaul extensions are by far the most cost effective and fastest ways to reach the most possible customers.
ISP Network Infrastructure, Point-to-Point Footprint Expansion
One important consideration for any ISP or WISP is how to deliver the bandwidth to each base station. Building a network infrastructure using traditional copper cable or fiber network connections can take a lot of time and can be prohibitively expensive. The preferred method for building your network is with high-capacity wireless point-to-point links or wireless backhaul. Trango wireless backhaul solutions make it incredibly easy for any Internet Service provider to inject additional bandwidth capacity into your existing network or to expand your network footprint geographic coverage into new territories with long-range point-to-point extensions.
Fixed wireless point-to-point equipment from Trango enables any ISP or WISP to quickly and easily deploy a broadband access network across a wide geographic area for a surprisingly low cost and superb return on investment (ROI). Trango's licensed wireless ISP backhaul solutions include the split-architecture microwave radio link, TrangoLINK Giga, and the all-outdoor microwave RF link, TrangoLINK Apex, which delivers up to 750 Mbps and operates at distances up to 40+ miles. Trango's featured license-exempt wireless ISP backhaul solution is the highly cost-effective TrangoLINK-45™ wireless Ethernet Bridge that delivers up to 45 Mbps of usable bandwidth up to 45 miles.

Delivering Last-mile Broadband Internet Access to Your Customers
Most WISP networks utilize wireless equipment which operates in the license-exempt spectrum to deliver "last mile" access to their customers, such as the Trango solutions 900 MHz M900S, 2.4 GHz M2400S, and 5 GHz Access5830. With the right equipment, a wireless ISP can enjoy quick ROI while offering their customers reliable, always-on, high-speed wireless access service.
Wireless Advantages for ISP Networks
Compared to the leased-line world of wired copper and optic fiber infrastructure - Wireless ISP networks enjoy many advantages:
- Quick and easy deployment, fast ROI.
- You own the infrastructure. Replace your leased access lines with wireless backhaul to eliminate recurring costs to the phone company.
- Low equipment costs. Base station construction cost is minimal when compared to long range wired facilities costs.
- License-exempt spectrum is free. There are no recurring costs to the FCC.
- Low cost to add subscribers Once you have deployed a base station, customer acquisition cost is very low.
- It's Fast. While DSL and Cable modem subscribers are limited to slow download speeds broadband wireless access (BWA) solutions from Trango can provide up to 10 Mbps.
- Flexible Networks given the ease of deployment, BWA networks are equally easy to change and modify as your business requirements change.
Access5830 - Trango's Point-to-MultiPoint WISP solution
Trango's Access5830™ solution has been the key wireless infrastructure component for many WISPs throughout the world. The Acces5830's success can be attributed to the fact that it's design was conceived specifically to allow a wireless ISP the ability to quickly, cost-effectively, and reliably deliver high-speed Internet access to large numbers of customers in widely disbursed geographic areas.
The Access5830™ offers higher speeds and longer ranges than competing solutions - but equally important is the manageability and scalability of the equipment. Trango solutions excell in these categories as well.
Key Advantages
- Performance The Access5830 delivers lots of bandwidth at great distances. New customers can be added to the network without any noticeable hit on overall speed.
- Dependability The Access5830 utilizes direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) Technology. Although we'd like to say we invented DSSS, we did not. DSSS was invented years ago by the US military as a secure, robust, and reliable means to communicate across great distances. The same characteristics of DSSS that worked well for the US military, can work to the advantages of WISPs. DSSS is inherently dependable, efficient, and secure. ISPs can spend more time acquiring more customers and less time maintaining or repairing the network.
- Manageability The Access5830 was designed to provide the ISP with complete control over its wireless network. All Trango radios feature comprehensive management interfaces including Telnet, HTTP, and SNMP built right into the radio. Network operators have full access to the radios to monitor performance, optimize the network, add or modify subscribers. Using SNMP, operators can be alerted to any potential problem on their network.
- Scalability The Access5830 system can grow along with the ISPs business. Adding subscribers is a simple matter of adding the SU to the AP's database. Access Points can be co-located (in fact, up to 22!) to provide coverage to multiple sectors. New base stations can be added and interlinked using PtP radios. The possibilities for growth are endless.
- Ease of Installation One of the most important considerations for cost-containment is ease of installation. In order to minimize truck-rolls and the time that installers spend at each new location, it is imperative that the CPE solution be easily and quickly installed. The Access5830 was designed with this in mind. All of our unlicensed radios, and the licensed TrangoLINK Apex feature Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) and radio/CPE solutions which are integrated together. This means the entire radio is mounted outdoors on a pole, or on a wall.
