Motorola CPEi 150

Motorola's CPEi 150 Series CPE is an orientation free, "plug-and-play", high performance data solution for your wireless broadband access device portfolio. The CPEi 150 is 802.16e WiMAX Forum Wave 2 certification ready. This series offers a balanced blend of power, performance, reliability and "wow" design. This Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) is the perfect solution to connect the unconnected.

Performance

CPE device performance is a factor of antenna gain, directivity and orientation, as well as transmitter power and receiver sensitivity. Radiated performance of WiMAX CPE devices can differ dramatically; in a typical environment, this high performing CPE can require dramatically fewer access points while still providing the same level of service. The Motorola WiMAX CPEi 150 desktop CPE features multiple antenna techniques that increase gain well beyond WiMAX Forum requirements.

Control

The Motorola wi4 WiMAX CPEi 150 Desktop CPE supports remote management capability allowing management and health monitoring of the devices from a centralized network or element management system. Advanced security and authentication protocols protect the end-user and the operator from external threats.

Convenience

Motorola's WiMAX Forum 802.16e Wave 2 ready wi4 WiMAX CPEi 150 is easy to install with "plug-and-play" functionality. The network will automatically detect the device and perform the necessary authentication processes. An easy to read signal strength indicator allows the user to orient the unit for optimum service.

CPEo 400

The cost effective, easy-to-deploy, and easy to manage CPEo 400 meets the market need for standards-based, fixed broadband wireless access in licensed spectrum. Based on 802.16e technology, the CPEo 400 delivers high-performing broadband wireless access. The outdoor mounted, unobtrusive CPEo 400 provides significant improvement in the coverage and capacity capabilities of the network, reducing the number of base sites required to address a given geography and boosting the bandwidth available to end-users.

Performance

The CPEo 400 offers end-users superior performance over indoor CPEs since the WiMAX reception is not impeded by concrete and brick walls or RF blocking glass and steel in building structures. Subscribers may also deploy the CPEo 400 to maximize reception via a line of sit connection to the base station which is not possible with an indoor unit. CPEo 400's outdoor antenna is highly directional and can point precisely to the bas-station with no path loss.

As with all Motorola CPE products, the CPEo 400 employs multiple antenna technology, which delivers increased range and higher throughput when compared too products with single antenna solutions.

Convenience & Reliability

The high performing CPEo 400 is well suited to service a multi-dwelling building. A CPEo 400 positioned on a rooftop can provide broadband access to multiple tenants in a single building. Similarly, an enterprise can use the outdoor CPEo 400 to offer broadband service and VPN connectivity from field offices back to the main corporate network, acting as the WiMAX gateway. This device, like all Motorola CPEs, is subject to the Motorola Networks Quality Standards and an established Quality Review Board. The quality process employs a system test plan developed and executed by Motorola's SEI Level 5 Test organization.

Control & Security

The CPEo 400 supports remote management capability allowing management and health monitoring of the devices from a centralized network or element management system. Advanced security and authentication protocols protect the end-user and the operator from external threats.

USBw 100

Instant, Reliable Access on the Move

Indoor wireless propagation can be particularly challenging, but Motorola’s wi4 WiMAX USB adaptor is designed to perform, offering reliable, high-speed data services to WiMAX subscribers.

Motorola’s wi4 WiMAX USBw 100 adaptor lets end-users connect to mobile WiMAX broadband on their laptops using the convenient USB format. This compact device easily plugs into any USB port to deliver flexible, high-speed connectivity for mobile or nomadic wireless broadband access. Now end-users are no longer limited to cable or DSL for high speed broadband connectivity. They can experience the same easy, reliable access to broadband speeds on the go – indoors and outdoors, at home or in the office. This cost effective device complements Motorola’s growing portfolio of Wave 2 ready WiMAX devices.

Best-in-Class Radio Performance

Decades of Motorola experience in radio environments have gone into the wi4 WiMAX device portfolio. This results in high performing devices that offer lower costs and higher returns for network operators and ease and freedom of use for consumers.

The USBw 100 adaptor offers best in-class radio performance in a convenient form factor. Compatible with Windows XP(SP2/SP3) and Vista, this adaptor provides notebook computer users with the low power consumption and high sensitivity they demand.

The USBw 100 employs multiple antenna technology, which delivers increased range and higher throughput when compared to products with single antenna solutions. When used with Motorola’s WAP 400 series access points, both uplink and downlink performance are significantly enhanced by advanced single processing techniques, including Maximal Radio Combining (MRC) and Cyclic Shift Transmit Diversity (CSTD). Select combinations of these algorithms are combined in Motorola device products in order to deliver high performance in the smallest physical footprint.
