EasyST and ProST CPE products have been developed to work with all WiMAX compliant base stations including all base stations from Airspan. The EasyST is an all-indoor CPE designed for self-install by the end user whereas the ProST is a part indoor- part outdoor CPE which requires professional installation and provides superior link budget in difficult deployment conditions.
The EasyST is a physically compact WiMAX CPE designed to be deployed alongside the end user’s PC. With dimensions close to the size of 2 CD jewel cases, EasyST looks great when sitting on a desk or window sill.
The EasyST is designed to be installed by the end user, using a simple-to-use but sophisticated user interface to enable optimum positioning without needing to switch-on the user’s PC. This helps improve service availability and reliability whilst increasing service speed and reducing network load.
Three different deployment models are supported: using the integral 4 x 90° antenna; using together with the optional Wi-Fi expansion (thus locating the EasyST by a window); or using an external antenna. In all cases a visual indication system informs the user when the optimum location for RF reception and transmission is achieved.
In addition to the simple-to-use user interface, EasyST also has an built-in Web server, which allows advanced configuration by the end-user or even remote configuration by a network operator’s customer service staff. EasyST is designed for combined voice and data deployments. EasyST has two optional “stackable” extension bases, one for Wi-Fi and the other for VoIP and data.
