Welcome!
Your TrangoLINK-10 radio system provides the latest innovations in high speed fixed wireless broadband.
TrangoLINK -10 is a point-to-point (PtP) system which provides network connectivity at speeds up to 10 Mbps with a
range of 40 miles depending on antenna configuration. TrangoLINK-10 is unique in that it can operate in either the 5.8
GHz ISM band or the 5.3 GHz U-NII band.
In this document and within the radio configuration itself, the designators of
“ISM” and “U-NII” are used to distinguish between the two bands.
The following table shows approximate maximum ranges (at recommended fade margins) achievable with the
TrangoLINK-10 system using various antenna configurations. Longer ranges are achievable, but will result in
lower fade margins.
TrangoLINK-10 system consists of two types of radios: Master Units (MU) and Remote Units (RU). With careful
channel planning, (and adequate spacing and shielding) network operators can co-locate up to 22 MUs at a single cell
site.
The MU and RU conform to maximum radiated power limits as established by the FCC.
