Point To Multipoint Network

Our Point To Multipoint Network is used to connect one location to one or more remote locations. The above diagram shows three connected multi-user networks (using a Hub or Switch). Any location may be configured as a Direct connection (without a Hub or Switch). Our Point To Multipoint Network is widely appreciated by our customers for its quality and durability.

Air-Frame 100 at location B can be used to create many, co-located point to multi-point networks or cells.
Typical Applications:

Internet, Intranet or Extranet configurations. ISP access networks. LAN to LAN applications (bridged or routed see below). Remote data capture (Telemetry or SCADA). Remote Control. Remote Monitoring, Security, Hub and Spoke, Conferencing.

Bridged or Routed:
In a bridged connection (Air-Frame 10 or 100 range) the network traffic is sent from one location to all other locations and consists of:

Traffic for a PC or system on any other network i.e. traffic from location A to, say, a system at location B, is also received by Location C (but is only sent once over the radio) and is placed on the local LAN at C by the bridging function.

Broadcast traffic (e.g. network management).
Multicast traffic.
In effect all the locations operate as a single, fully transparent LAN. Where one or more locations consist of many PCs or systems the broadcast traffic alone can be considerable and consideration should be given to using a routed network. e.
