Long Range
The M5580M-FSU features Trango's innovative dual-polarized, multi-element antenna technology for superior performance and longer range. It can be deployed up to 2 miles from the access point with 10 dB fade margin to spare, or with an optional external dish antenna provides a range of 10 miles. Reference range chart for more details.
Exclusive Robust Adaptive Polling Algorithm
Trango's patented SMARTPolling™ (U.S. patent 7,127,255) is a unique and powerful prioritization scheme designed to ensure the highest quality of service, such as VoIP, to each user at the maximum assigned throughput. The AP will poll each SU in a round-robin fashion, favoring subscribers which are busy passing traffic. For this reason the SMARTPolling™ protocol is adaptive and dynamic as opposed to straight Time Division Duplex (TDD). Added control of the polling sequence is provided by the ability for network operators to specify certain subscribers as PRIORITY in which case these subscribers will be polled more frequently thus guaranteeing even lower latency for critical clients
