EasyST

 

EasyST and ProST are the CPE products 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 an indooroutdoor 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 bookshelf.

 

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 connecting to 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 8.5dBi antenna; using together with the optional Wi-Fi expansion (thus locating the EasyST by a window); or using with the stick-on-the-window external antenna. In all cases a visual indication system informs the user when the optimum location for RF reception and transmission is achieved.

 

The EasyST is Airspan's second generation indoor, plug and play CPE and builds on extensive deployment experience gathered from multiple mass deployments around the globe. The EasyST includes support for Airspan's "Auto-connect" feature, which selects the best serving Base Station based on RX and TX signal levels and active modulation schemes.

 

EasyST also inherits the "Auto-configure" function from ASWipLL's Indoor Radio (IDR), which enables automatic downloading of service configurations over the air after the CPE has been registered on the network. This feature can be used independently or in conjunction with an integral SIM card reader.

 

In addition to the simple-to-use user interface, EasyST also has an in-built 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 a number of optional "stackable" extension bases, one for Wi-Fi and the other for VoIP and data.
