Redline Gets Approval for Long-Haul Wireless Gear

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has granted approval to wireless vendor Redline Communications to sell a broadband solution that uses the license-exempt 5.4-GHz spectrum.

Wireless providers will be able to use Redline's RedConnex AN-80i broadband wireless suite to quickly connect sites at distances that can exceed 50 miles in clear line-of-sight conditions, at speeds from 9 Mbps to 108 Mbps, the vendor said.The RedConnex AN-80i solution is already used by operators outside the United States to support a number of wireless applications in hard-to-reach areas, including pipeline monitoring and border security.

Redline said the solution can be used to deliver services to both private sector clients and municipalities looking for a low-cost way to provide metro Wi-Fi to users.

The company offers an outdoor AN-80i system that comes with an audible antenna alignment indicator to accelerate installation and a variety of antenna options.
