Siklu, has introduced a virtually invisible mm-Wave full gigabit speed radio that is roughly the size of a smartphone. The TU (cTU) T201 is a compact Terminal Unit that is part of the PtMP MultiHaul series product line from Siklu. With the cTU, the customer premise side of the system has been reduced by over 85% in total volume when compared to the standard TU (Terminal Unit), while maintaining the same gigabit performance.
This cTU device is available in a pocket-size package that measures only 6.5"x3.1"x1" (165mm x 80mm x 25mm) and weighs less than 250 grams. It is also available in multiple colors making it easy to blend into its environment.
The MultiHaul cTU is inherently interference-free and secure under all circumstances thanks to a unique combination of narrow pencil beams operating over the uncongested 60 GHz frequency spectrum, coupled with embedded AES encryption, exactly the same as the standard TU. Multiple subscribers and services can be connected on the same mm-Wave wireless gigabit network simultaneously with complete isolation based on a physical port, VLAN ID and/or a Terminal Unit.
The cTU smart package is designed for a quick and simple, one-person installation. The integrated Anymount allows for pole or wall attachment, and the installation is completed with a single CAT5e cable into the premise where the cTU gets standard POE power from an Ethernet device. An optional POE injector is included in the package to guarantee power in non-standard installations. The narrow-beam is aligned automatically, and provisioning from the BU is automatic for any Terminal Unit (TU and cTU).
The cTU compact and slim form-factor is available in multiple color options allowing installation everywhere, eliminating costly site preparations and long cable runs. The solution is also supported by Siklu's SmartHaul software management tools for automated network design and planning with Siklu radios.
Siklu's cTU solution will be showcased at CommunicAsia 2019 in Singapore from 18-20 June and at IFSEC International, in London from 18-20 June.
