5 GHz 450b
Subscriber and Backhaul

5 GHz 450b Quick Look

• Increases performance of the 450
platform
• Ultra-wide band radios: 4.9 GHz to 5.9
GHz
• Capable of up to 300 Mbps aggregate in
a 40 MHz channel
• Can function as a point-to-point link or a
• subscriber module

Key Features
• Gigabit Ethernet interface provides the
maximum transfer rates to the device
• Available in mid-gain (17 dBi), high-gain (24 dBi),
and connectorized versions
• 3.5 mm audio jack allows direct connection of
headphones for alignment without any
adaptors
• New System on a Chip (SoC) enhances packet
processing power more than 4x that of the 450
subscriber module (SM)
• “No Encryption” models required only for
countries with export control license
requirements
