The link back into the public network can be made through the PSTN, satellite or line of site equipment.
The unit contains an FXO Gateway as standard, with the option to have a satellite router.
The GSM rapid deployment unit (RDU) is a plug and play unit; it takes less than 5 minutes to power up and provides coverage within open spaces of up to 500m radius unidirectional for site personnel.
It is ideal for difficult sites where underground coverage is required, or where the steel frame or glass walling of the building infrastructure may affect the performance of standard mobile network signals.
The GSM traffic can also be used to communicate with other sites and over broadband IP network connections.
The units have been developed to address the need to provide communications rapidly, and to move the communications on quickly to the next site once a job is done.
They are CE Approved.
Housed in a ruggardised case they support a range of backhaul options.
The case comes complete with the Base Transceiver Station, a selection of ruggardised mobile phones, the battery unit and the connection for the backhaul to the IP network.
No installation is required.
The RDU is available immediately from accredited PMN partners.
