The Access5830 is an enterprise-class wireless access point offering 10 Mbps, direct sequence, and spread spectrum. It operates in the 5.8 gigahertz license-exempt band in multiple channels. This fully weatherized outdoor unit utilizes Trango's patented adaptive dynamic polling algorithm, SMARTPolling™, technology to efficiently deliver broadband Internet access to up to 500 subscriber units and includes a comprehensive set of management and deployment tools.

The Access5830™ wireless access point (AP) is available in two versions, one with an integrated antenna and one with dual external antenna connectors. Like all Trango Broadband products, the Access Point is powered via Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) for ease of installation.

Versatility & Scalability

The Access5830 base station works in conjunction with any Access5830™ compatible subscriber unit including the new Atlas FOX SU (see more compatible SUs at right).

Tight channels, coupled with dual polarity antennas allow total collocation potential of up to 12 access points for a fully loaded cell site. More typical deployments involve anywhere from 1 to 6 access points. With a 60 degree antenna beamwidth, you can cover a full 360 degree site with 6 APs.

Features such as 6 channels, all user-selectable, non-overlapping and programmable, coupled with dual polarity antennas allow for maximum flexibility and permit the administrator to change channel assignments quickly and to minimize susceptibility to interference.

All programming of the network and of authorized subscriber units is consolidated at the AP to maintain full network control. Supported protocols such as Telnet, SNMP, HTTP, and FTP allow network operators to configure and manage the AP database remotely to modify channel plans, configuration, the Subscriber Unit database, and other parameters.

Management and Deployment Tools

The Trango wireless access point offers a host of management tools designed to allow network operators to quickly and efficiently deploy and manage their Access5830™ network. A few features:

• Site Survey - this tool scans entire band and reports back average and peak interference
• RF LINK / Speed test - tests each SU for quality of link and reports overall bandwidth as well as dropped packet errors.
• Receive Threshold Control - Setting to increase or decrease receiver sensitivity depending on range and interference conditions.
• Channel Planning - Use the Access5830™ default channels or assign any frequency to one of 30 available channels in single MHz increments
• Power Leveling - The powerful feature will automatically adjust the output power of each subscriber unit to the specified RSSI Target. This feature allows each SU's signal to be received at the AP at approximately the same level regardless of the AP's distance.
• SNMP - monitor the status of all SU's via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), built in web browser interface, Telnet. Collects and reports all vital SU statistics and status.

The Access583A Access Point* (AP) is an enterprise class, 10 Mbps, direct sequence spread spectrum wireless transceiver that offers channels of operation in both the 5.8 and 5.3 GHz unlicensed bands. The AP supports up to 500 subscriber units, offers robust interference rejection (ARQ‡) and also includes an integrated antenna and a comprehensive set of management and deployment tools.
