Why AirLive Wireless Products Are Better?

AirLive Advantage

Quality and Reliability

AirLive Wireless AP is subjected to pass a 2-hour oven test at over 100 degree Celsius. So even when the case is melted, the AP continues to operate. No other manufacturer will put such strict standard on their product design.

-30 degree Chamber Test

The metal mounting kit has been tested to sustain wind up to category 17 on the Beaufort scale. That is 216 km per hour wind speed.

Competitor’s so called 2000mW USB

Some vendor claim their USB has 2000mW output power. But…

Below is the specification from their website. In reality, it is only a 600mW(28dBm) device which adds the 5dBi antenna to claim 2000mW. Since the antenna is changeable. It is far away from the truth.

WN-380USB TX Power

AirLive only advertises the WN-380USB as 800mW(29dBm). Yet it reaches 29dBm in the reading. Adding 1dB for cable loss, its power is actually 30dBm without antenna. AirLive’s 800mW is more powerful than competitor’s 2000mW

Competitor’s CPE claims 24dBm. But it only measures 12.8dB

Competitor’s so-called 24dB CPE

AirLive N.Power TX Power

AirLive N.Power claims 30dBm without antenna, but it measures 30.4dBm. Exceed the expectation

Why AirLive products can reach longer distance?

Beam Forming Technology

Beam Forming

Beam Forming is the new wireless technology to expand the coverage in the multi-level homes and offices. It utilizes “Directional Sensing” and “Multi-Path” techniques to achieve this purpose

The wireless radios of a beam forming router will sense the direction of incoming wireless signal. Then it will focus the transmission signal towards that direction. The technology increases the wireless signal strength and the transmission stability towards the intended recipients. It improves the radios' efficiency and utility level to achieve greater wireless coverage

Directional Sensing

Multi-Path Capability

The wireless signals usually reach remote destinations by signal bouncing. During this process, it is possible that the multiple paths are formed to reach the destination devices. It might create the "the early transmitted packets will arrive later" problem which will render most packets useless. The N450R's multipath capability have special buffers to regroup the multipath packet. The end result is much greater transmission rate in complex environments.

Conference Room InstallationWireless User Limit

Conference Room Wireless Setup

During the introduction of iPhone 4, Steve Jobs could not demonstrate Face Time because too many users was sharing the WiFi which overload the network. How should we setup the WiFi network in a conference room where many users will share the bandwidth? A typical Access Point can handle between 20 to 30 users. There are some more powerful AP that can handle more users, yet since the WiFi bandwidth is shared by all users. It is still not a good solution. The best solution is to use multiple APs with user limitation. So each users can get enough bandwidth without overloading the network.

Mission Critical WirelessSuper Channel + Channel Shifting

Super Channel + Channel Shifting technologies provide absolutely secured wireless connection that is immune to wireless jamming and tapping for mission critical applications such as IPCAM and Enterprise server security

Private Channel

In 5GHz. Normally, each channel is every 20MHz. Therefore, the channel will start every 4. For example, channel 36, 40,44…etc

Channel Shifting

When every 5GHz is enabled, channels can begin at any frequency. Therefore, the center frequency is shifted. Creating non-standard channels that is more private and difficult to access.

Channel Shift

802.11a’s frequency band starts from 5.18 to 5.825GHz. Super Channels adds 4.9GHz and 6.1GHz band. These channels are rarely used. Therefore, it is free of interference and wireless jamming.

Hotel Installation

It’s quote common that customers will give you the floor plan of a hotel and ask you to plan the installation. Which of the following area below is the best to install the Access Points?

1Outside Windows?

2

Inside the Room?

3 In the Hall Way?

The best place to install AP in the hotel is in the false ceiling of the hallway. The reason is most hotel doors are made of wood. It can reach more rooms through the door than other locations.
