The Stratum SX5 is a 5 GHz, MIMO 4x4 point-to-point radio with greater than 1.5 Gbps throughput, and ideally suited to high capacity backhaul applications. The 4x4 MIMO radio offers two significant benefits: In MIMO 4x4:4 mode, a 20 MHz channel will double the throughput compared to the typical MIMO 2x2:2 point-to-point systems available today.In MIMO 4x4:2 mode, antenna diversity enables two mirrored data streams that improve radio stability in harsh environments.
The SX5 has flexible and secure management options. This includes Proxim BlueConnect; Bluetooth-enabled mobile management application; TLS 1.3 web GUI, SSH 2.0 CLI, and SNMP v3 for ProximVision Advanced or other network management solutions. Proxim ClearConnect™ combines multiple dynamic technologies and delivers the best interference management solution.
The SX5 uses an IP67-rated metal enclosure to ensure years of reliable service in harsh environments, including high winds, high salt, and temperature extremes.
