BELAIR NETWORKS CONFIDENTIAL Slide 3
Key Requirements In Identifying The Right Technology for Public Safety Metro-scale Networks
MobilityDo NOT assume that mobility is enabledWill voice calls & VPN seamlessly hand-off between WiFi APs
BroadbandDo NOT settle for “wireless dial-up”Deliver true broadband today and plan to scale
Multi-serviceIt’s NOT just about WiFi!What about 4.9GHz Public Safety? What about WiMAX?
MeshProven mesh backhaul – capacity on demandReliable, low latency, support for high quality video/voice
BELAIR NETWORKS CONFIDENTIAL Slide 4
All Meshes Are Not Created Equal - Shared Mesh
Wireless Access & Backhaul“Shared Mesh”
Multipoint-to-Multipoint Links
Wire Ethernet Access
What Does a Shared Mesh Deliver:
Limited capacity – shared bandwidth High, unpredictable latency, jitter Very limited scaleability Highly unpredictable performance No ability to support Video or VoIP
All radio nodes and all devices communicate on the same frequency and same frequency and same channelsame channel in a hub-like broadcast fashion.
