BreezeACCESS II is a carrier-class line of wireless access products designed for operation in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. Supporting a rackmounted base station chassis, the system offers the ability to combine licensed with unlicensed bands in the same base station. This feature increases system flexibility, provides cost savings and permits the aggregation of bandwidth as network growth demands. An optional built-in load-sharing redundant power supply, with automatic switchover switch·o·ver n. A complete shift, as from one system to another. feature, safeguards the reliability of the network. Adjustable RF power capabilities improve system capacity and frequency planning to maximize spectrum utilization and capitalize on maximum frequency reuse. BreezeACCESS II supports enhanced IP services, including VLANs, integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Software that automatically assigns temporary IP addresses to client stations logging into an IP network. It eliminates having to manually assign permanent "static" IP addresses. DHCP software runs in servers and routers. , multiple service options and voice QoS using the 802.1p standard.--BreezeCOM www.breezecom.com Circle 319 for more information Wireless Gigabit Ethernet Booth 1126 HIGH-CAPACITY, BROADBAND SYSTEM delivers wireless Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. The FibeAir 10000 system is designed to bridge high-capacity connections across the metropolitan area market, particularly as a time-sensitive alternative to the deployment of a fiber network. The system has a modular and scalable architecture to provide a high-quality wireless Gigabit Ethernet connection across multiple frequencies between 18 and 38 GHz. The product, designed with spectral efficiency in mind, uses two 50(FCC (1) (Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC, www.fcc.gov) The U.S. government agency that regulates interstate and international communications including wire, cable, radio, TV and satellite. The FCC was created under the U.S. )/56(ESTI ESTI European Solar Test Installation ESTI European Society of Thoracic Imaging ESTI Esthetician ESTI Easy Software Technologies, Inc (Philippines) ESTI Enhanced Self Timed Interface ) MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. channels to deliver connectivity. The FibeAir is flexible to enable the expansion of an IP network incrementally as demand increases. The system incorporates full IP switching capabilities, eliminating the need to invest in external networking equipment. The FibeAir complies with North American and international standards, delivering IP, SONET/SDH and ATM broadband networking.--Ceragon Networks www.ceragon.com Circle 321 for more information Message logging Booth 8285 ANALYZE AND CERTIFY CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) A method for transmitting simultaneous signals over a shared portion of the spectrum. The foremost application of CDMA is the digital cellular phone technology from QUALCOMM that operates in the 800 MHz band and 1.9 GHz PCS band. TERMINAL and network performance. InfoDM is a diagnostic tool that provides extensive monitoring, logging and control capability for CDMA handsets and terminals. The v2.0 release supplements Spirent Communications' CDMA test solution with high-speed, over-the-air data logging and a data-playback feature. Message logging now includes a turbo mode for high-volume logging, expanded message decoding and message bookmarking. InfoDM's data analysis capabilities have been enhanced with a playback feature that allows graphical and tabular viewing and evaluation of logged CDMA data. The data can be reviewed in a forward or reverse mode at a user-selectable playback rate. InfoDM v2.0 runs on all Win32 platforms, including Windows 2000.--Spirent Communications, TAS TAS abbr. 1. telephone answering system 2. true airspeed www.spirentcom.com Circle 316 for more information Performance tester Booth 1225 TEST 3G RADIO ACCESS NETWORKS with a highly scalable tester. The 3G RAN Load Tester enables technicians to verify the performance of RNC RNC Republican National Committee (US) RNC Republican National Convention RNC Radio Network Controller RNC Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (provincial police force) or Node B networks under realistic and extreme conditions. The platform complements the 3GTS GTS abbr. gas turbine ship Functional RAN tester, offering network scale control and allowing user-plane traffic simulations. The unit accurately measures node capacity and end-to-end network service quality. An easy-to-use GUI (Graphical User Interface) A graphics-based user interface that incorporates movable windows, icons and a mouse. The ability to resize application windows and change style and size of fonts are the significant advantages of a GUI vs. a character-based interface. provides technicians complete control over the test environment. Test results, events and test environment settings can be logged for detailed analysis.--Agilent Technologies www.agilent.com Circle 318 for more information Adaptable enclosure Booth 628 DURABLE RACK ENCLOSURE has the flexibility to be scaled up in features and level of protection to a fully integrated minicomputer (1) An earlier medium-scale, centralized computer that functioned as a multiuser system for up to several hundred users. The minicomputer industry was launched in 1959 after Digital Equipment Corporation introduced its PDP-1 for $120,000, an unheard-of low price for a computer in room system. The basic Foundation Enclosure is built on a flexible frame design that is the basis for either a nonsealed, or NEMA NEMA National Electrical Manufacturers Association NEMA National Emergency Management Agency NEMA National Emergency Management Association NEMA Nottingham East Midlands Airport (UK) 12 enclosure. The cabinet is an adaptable solution that can be customized with adjustable mounting rails, multiple door options, and cable access and management for organization and security. Expansion options create the Foundation Mini Computer Room for continuous systems availability, with integrated computer-grade air conditioning, power protection, monitoring and security. Functioning as a self-contained computer room for critical network systems and components, the enclosure provides a quick deployment solution that can be relocated or expanded to fit changing requirements. The online UPS and cooling systems are load matched to assure optimum performance, and a backup cooling system provides cooling support in the event of high-temperature conditions.--Liebert www.liebert.com Circle 320 for more information T-1 line surge protection Booth 3667 PROTECT SENSITIVE TELEPHONE, datacom and instrumentation equipment against harmful lightning surges and electrical transients. The B280 and B480 series wall-mountable T-1 surge protectors use a heavy-duty multistage mul·ti·stage adj. 1. Functioning in more than one stage: a multistage design project. 2. Relating to or composed of two or more propulsion units. design with a hybrid technology that combines a fast response time ([is less than] 1 ns) and a high-power handling capability of 10 kA. The devices automatically reset after each lightning surge or electrical transient, and are UL 497B approved. Small enough to be mounted inside a cabinet or on a backboard back·board n. 1.
