Introduction Hardware Installation Guide 1.3.2. Subscriber Site The WipLL subscriber site is located at the service provider's subscribers’ premises. The WipLL subscriber site equipment consists of a radio transceiver that receives and transmits signals from and to the base station. The WipLL radio transceiver provides the subscriber with high-speed data access, Internet access, and VoIP at up to 4 Mbps. The WipLL transceiver connects to the subscriber’s network or PC via WipLL’s Ethernet hub (i.e.
Hardw are Installation Guide Introduction WipLL’s subscriber site equipment is comprised of the following: ! Subscriber Premises Radio (SPR): The SPR is a radio transceiver that provides a wireless link between the base station and the subscriber’s network. The SPR is installed outside the subscriber's premises, typically on a roof. ! Subscriber Data Adapter (SDA): The SDA is a hub/switch that provides the SPR with -48 VDC power supply and Ethernet connectivity to the subscriber’s network/PC.
Introduction Hardware Installation Guide − SDA-4S/VLtag: This model is ideal for multi-tenant applications where traffic engineering and privacy is required. SDA-4S/VLtag assigns the traffic from each of its four ports with a different VLAN ID. The VLAN IDs are fixed (since SDA-4S/VLtag is not user configurable). SPR converts the four VLAN IDs tagged by SDA-4S/VLtag to four VLAN IDs configured via WipLL’s NMS.

WipManage™: WipManage is the WipLL network (element) management system (NMS) providing fault, configuration, performance, and security management.
Hardw are Installation Guide Introduction 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 channel is occupied for as long as the session lasts.
Introduction Hardware Installation Guide 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.
Hardw are Installation Guide Introduction 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.
Introduction Hardware Installation Guide 1.4.4. Traffic Engineering in Multi-Tenant Application Airspan’s WipLL system provides high-speed wireless broadband (e.g., Internet) access for multiple-tenant units (MTU). WipLL provides a dedicated high-speed connection to the building, and then distributes that bandwidth among the tenants, providing them with a private, secure connection.

Introduction Hardware Installation Guide 1.4.5. 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 1-9.
Hardw are Installation Guide Introduction In Figure 1-9, BSR A is part of a WipLL base station that is connected to the service provider’s backbone. BSR A serves multiple SPRs, marked as SPR Ai. Two SPRs— SPR B1 and SPR B2—cannot communicate directly with the base station. Therefore, an SPR acts as a repeater by connecting back-to-back with BSR B (SPR B1 and B2 are served by BSR B).
