SYSTEM OVERVIEW
EasyST 4.9 (hereafter referred to simply as EasyST) is a revolutionary, self-install, compact, indoor
WiMAX subscriber access device. EasyST delivers high-speed Internet services to subscribers' IP-
enabled devices through its wireless-based interface with WiMAX networks (i.e. ISP's base station).
EasyST is designed to work with the AS.MAX Base Station. EasyST implements Intel Corporation
’ s
Pro/Wireless 5116 broadband interface. EasyST is designed for the residential and small enterprise
markets, providing high-speed broadband Internet access and a Fast Ethernet connection to the
subscriber's local area network (LAN).
EasyST can be installed (indoors) by end users within minutes without the need for costly
professional installations.
EasyST operates in the 4.9 to 5.0 GHz frequency band in time division duplexing (TDD) mode.
EasyST supports IP services at uplink and downlink over-the-air speeds of up to 37 Mbps over a
channel bandwidth of 10 MHz, and up to 18 Mbps over a channel bandwidth of 5 MHz.
EasyST uses the OFDM signaling format, providing non line-of-sight (NLOS) performance. EasyST
utilizes QAM, QPSK, and BPSK modulation technologies by modulating transmitted signals and
demodulating the received signals where the original digital message can be recovered. The use of
adaptive modulation allows EasyST to optimize throughput, yielding higher throughputs while also
covering long distances.
EasyST is deployed with a clip-on antenna for providing the wireless interface with the base station.
The antenna is supplied attached to the EasyST's top panel.
The EasyST's compact design allows it to be easily mounted alongside the end-user's PC by simply
placing it on a desktop. Easy-to-read radio signal strength LED indicators on the EasyST's top panel
enables the end user to position the device in the optimum location, ensuring service availability
and reliability, whilst increasing service speed and reducing network load.
EasyST provides 10/100BaseT interface with the subscriber's LAN. In addition, the EasyST provides
an interface for adding plug-in expansion modules to provide support for features ( planned for
future ) such as: Wi-Fi and LAN switch; VoIP and battery backup.
EasyST is powered by an AC/DC power adapter that is plugged into any standard electrical wall
outlet. The power adapter provides interchangeable plug prongs to suit country electrical wall
sockets.
EasyST can be managed by
Airspan's AS.MAX Web-based management system using standard Web
browsers that access the Web server located on the EasyST (refer to the WiMAX Web-based
Management User's Guide ), or alternatively, by an SNMP-based network management system
(Netspan) using standard and proprietary MIBs. In addition, external third-party management
systems such as HP OpenView can also manage the EasyST using these MIBs.
