MRT - Mobile Radio Transmitter
Airspan has adapted their seasoned and mature technology to fit applications requiring vehicle connectivity within their network. A customized CPE was created which harnesses the best of existing units in order to offer a ruggedized, Wi-Fi enabled, vehicle mounted CPE. This unique unit, called MRT (mobile radio transmitter), allows for real-time information exchange, surveillance and vehicle tracking. The vehicle mounted CPE communicates with stationary base stations deployed in transportation depots, police lots, along roads and highways or anywhere within a network, and in the case of emergency situations, the unit can transmit to a nomadic base station. The MRT is a rugged hybrid device integrating WiMAX CPE and Wi-Fi AP functions in a single package allowing WiMAX connectivity while simultaneously creating a Wi-Fi hot spot enabling passengers or vertical market employees to access Wi-Fi Internet or network connectivity from a variety of devices. The unit is ideal for mobile applications and vehicular operation. When mounted in a vehicle, the unit can either be powered directly from the vehicle or from an outside source. The MRT is ideal for any market needing communication to and from vehicles. These include, Smart Utilities, Oil and Gas, Public Safety, Transportation, Surveillance, etc. By opening up new service opportunities and by creating the environment for vehicular broadband services everywhere, Airspan is enabling entities worldwide to change their business models, increasing efficiency and cost effectiveness. The MRT is deployed with external vehicle mounted antennas for Wi-Fi and WiMAX. The WiMAX segment provides a wireless interface with the Airspan Mobile WiMAX base stations. For Wi-Fi interface with the customer’s network, the MRT is deployed with an RF connector to allow quick and easy attachment of the Wi-Fi antennas. The antennas provide 360-degree coverage through its omni-directional antenna and is weatherproof, maintaining excellent antenna performance in any weather.
