This carrier-class, high-reliability product can serve as either a base station or a premium-grade subscriber unit, and is designed to be completely interoperable with WiMAX- compatible equipment including the Red MAX SU-O and RedMAX SU-I subscriber units. RedMAX Base Station provides a scalable solution for any WiMAX access network. It delivers PMP enterprise access and residential/SOHO services. The RedMAX Base Station also delivers point-to-point backhaul services to the RedMAX Backhaul subscriber station.

Features-at-a-glance:

• Can act as a powerful PMP base station or a ‘premium grade’ subscriber unit
  
• Carrier-class, highly-reliable unit with solid security (including AES encryption)
  
• Field upgradeable via software download to accommodate future enhancements
  
• Compliant with IEEE 802.16-2004 and 802.16e (mobility) – ready
  
• WiMAX Forum Certified™ Design
  

Easy and cost-effective to deploy, the RedMAX Base Station system facilitates the rapid provision of new services by service providers, while its very low latency ensures reliable delivery of data-sensitive services, including circuit-switched voice traffic, voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP), video and prioritized data traffic. Individual Quality of Service (QoS) settings can be set dynamically, according to the service level agreement (SLA).

The RedMAX Base Station can be deployed in clusters of up to six (60 degree) sectors, supporting up to 4,000 unique user-data flows. The GPS time synchronization feature ensures efficient use of available spectrum and channels, providing scalable and reliable cell deployment when operating Time Division Duplexing (TDD) radios in close proximity.

The hardware is fully upgradeable in the field by software download, to accommodate such future enhancements as IPv6 support, scalability, additional classifiers, alternative encryption standards, and the continued development of the 802.16 standard. Adherence to stringent carrier-class NEBS Level 3 specifications provides high reliability for mission critical deployments. The indoor unit has a selection of radios for operation in licensed and unlicensed bands using the 802.16-2004 specified 3.5 MHz and 7 MHz channel profiles.
