The latest addition to the SONAbeam family, the 2500-Z delivers up to 2.5 Gbps of full duplex bandwidth. While other 2.5 Gbps wireless solutions pair two systems together at added expense, the SONAbeam 2500-Z offers the highest capacity wireless connection in an economical, single link solution. Utilizing a pair of GigE interface ports to provide 2.5 Gbps, the 2500-Z provides full-duplex links via an indoor multiplexor.
The SONAbeam Z series was designed to provide a lightweight, economical solution for short distance links. It is ideal for high capacity links up to 500 meters. The SONAbeam Z is housed in a low-profile, all aluminum enclosure suitable for outdoor operation in all weather environments as well as for indoor installation operating through a window. Featuring near-zero latency and packet loss, the SONAbeam Z transmits full-rate, full-duplex native Gigabit Ethernet and can also operate in protocol transparent mode in order to support custom datarates or carry both TDM and IP traffic on the same link.
