Hardw are Installation Manual Introduction 1.3.3. Network Operations Center Airspan’s WipLL system provides state-of-the-art, use-friendly management tools for managing the WipLL system. These management tools provide fault, configuration, performance, and security management of the WipLL system. The WipLL system provides two management tools: ! WipManage™--WipLL network (and element) management system tool.
Introduction Hardware Installation Manual 1.4. Applications The following subsections provide examples of typical WipLL applications. 1.4.1. Broadband Data Access Using a standard PSTN modem in circuit-switched networks, subscribers are limited to 56 Kbps of throughput, and in most cases, to 28.8 Kbps. From the operator's perspective, once a subscriber has dialed up with a PSTN modem, a full 128 Kbps channel is occupied for as long as the session lasts.
Hardw are Installation Manual Introduction 1.4.2. High Speed Internet Access One of the advantages of WipLL is the fact that subscribers are "always on" Internet. This means that there is no dialing process and no need for the hassle involved with dialup access. Subscribers need only to open their Web browser or e-mail to be instantly connected. WipLL can also distinguish between applications and subscribers, thus, enabling the operator to provide different class of service to subscribers.
Introduction Hardware Installation Manual 1.4.3. Voice over IP The WipLL system enables customers the flexibility of migration from a data-only network to an integrated Voice-over-IP and data network. The WipLL voice solution provides interoperability with any IP-to-PSTN network gateway. The use of the IPto-PSTN gateway allows operators seamless PSTN connectivity such as SS7 (signaling network), G3-303, and V5.2 over E1, allowing deployment in multinational markets.
Hardw are Installation Manual Introduction 1.4.4. Repeater Solution WipLL units can be used to provide repeater functionality. This is implemented in where the BSR needs to be “extended” to remote subscriber sites that are blocked by obstacles (such as trees, hills, and other typical line-of-sight obstructions) or that the BSR-SPR (or BSR-IDR) transmission is out-of-range. Back-to-back Ethernet connectivity of a BSR with an SPR/IDR provides the repeater capability, as demonstrated in Figure 1-8.
Introduction Hardware Installation Manual Notes: - Careful planning is required to cope with issues such as interferences and delay that are introduced by the repeater solution. For example, if the system is used as a frequency hopping system, GPS may be required at each base station. - Space and frequency isolation between the “repeater SPR” and BSR B is required. - Bandwidth management should be calculated to support the “repeater bandwidth”.
