Motorola Canopy Modules Information

The Canopy system operates in point-to-point and point-tomultipoint configurations at 2.4, 5.2 and 5.7 GHz. The 2.4 GHz Canopy modules support point-to-point links delivering 13 Mbps of effective throughput for distances up to 56 km (35 miles) as well as point-to-multipoint links delivering more than 6 Mbps of throughput for distances up to 24 km (15 miles). Designed to deliver consistent and reliable wireless broadband service, the Canopy system gracefully scales to support large deployments. This is achieved through the system's unique synchronization capabilities using the Global Positioning System (GPS) as well as Canopy's inherent interference techniques. The system's synchronization allows network operators to re-use frequencies and add capacity while consistently ensuring consistency in the quality of service to customers. As a result, subscribers can experience carrier grade service - even those at the outer edge of the network. Synchronization also helps ensure the Canopy system modules' transmissions do not interfere with each other. Canopy system modules are also extremely tolerant to interference from other sources. The Canopy system's industry-leading nominal Carrier

to Interference (C/I) ratio of 3 dB ensures reliable communication when other transmitters are present. The Canopy system hardware draws little power and its packaging is unobtrusive. Installation is easy, and the built-in audio and visual feedback indicators allow the unit to be installed with no special training. These characteristics facilitate initial deployment and network expansion as capacity needs increase.
