Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM WIN7235 base station is a member of the RUGGEDCOM family, a line of mobile WiMAX
broadband wireless access systems based on the IEEE 802.16e mobile WiMAX standard. These systems are
designed for robustness and simplicity, offering feature-rich services with low deployment and operation costs, for
unmatched operator competitiveness and fast return on investment.
The RUGGEDCOM WIN7235 is a cost-effective solution for wireless access services, designed for point-to-
multipoint broadband wireless access applications in varying conditions and locations. It is a one-sector base
station.
The base station communicates with fixed and mobile subscriber units according to defined service criteria and
customer Service Level Agreements (SLAs). The base station also connects to the service provider backbone,
supporting end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) requirements.
The RUGGEDCOM WIN7235 features a small footprint and flexible mounting options, allowing it to be easily
mounted by one person on poles, street lamps, towers or walls.
Primary benefits offered by theRUGGEDCOM WIN7235 include:
•
Ecosystem Compatibility
Compatible with any RUGGEDCOM WIN product or IEEE 802.16e standard compliant WiMAX network
equipment.
•
Rated for Harsh Environments
IEEE 1613, IEC 61850-3, Class 1 Div 2/ATEX Zone 2, MIL-STD 810F, 509.4 - salt fog.
•
Long Range
Transmit and receive diversity combined with high power for improved reach and NLOS (Non-Line-Of-Sight)
performance.
•
High Bandwidth
RUGGEDCOM WIN has two built-in radios operating on the same frequency simultaneously (MIMO or Multiple
Input Multiple Output) to increase bandwidth (up to 40 Mbps) and spectral efficiency.
•
Lowest Frequency Use
Leverages OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access) and built-in GPS (Global Positioning System)
to enable users to deploy an entire network on a single frequency channel.
•
Usage Models
Designed to support long range connections to fixed, portable and mobile end points, supporting vehicular
speed seamless mobility and backhaul mode.
•
Rugged Form Factor
All-outdoor, rugged and small form factor allows for flexible deployment options. RUGGEDCOM products are
designed for use in harsh environments such as those found in electrical power substations, oil refineries,
military applications, roadside traffic control cabinets and metals and minerals processing.
•
Remote Monitoring and Configuration with RUGGEDCOM NMS
RUGGEDCOM NMS is Siemens's Network Management System software for the discovery, monitoring and
management of RUGGEDCOM products and other IP enabled devices on a network. This highly configurable,
full-featured product records and reports on the availability and performance of network components and
services. Device, network and service failures are quickly detected and reported to reduce downtime.
