The advantage of our 5 GHz MIMO Wireless is its extreme speed and distance capabilities. We have actually measured total throughput on one connection at over 156 Mbps making it far faster than any DSL or Cable connection to the Internet. The radios use the 802.11n protocol (similar to WiMax, but legal in the US) using what is called 2x2 chaining to achieve this incredible speed. This is truly cutting edge technology.
While this may not seem intuitive, it is not possible to see the full speed of these radios from a single download such as a speed test site. Instead, to see the full speed, you must download from several Internet sites simultaneously. MIMO radios are exceptionally good for businesses with several employees, homes with multiple computers and as backhauls from apartment complexes. MIMO is short for Multiple In Multiple Out.
The radios we use automatically prioritize digital voice (VoIP) connections providing extremely low jitter and improved voice quality over traditional wireless connections.

* A $50.00 installation fee is required for all outdoor radios which remain the property of Cactus International, Inc. The installation includes antenna, wireless radio, cabling (up to 100 ft), POE adaptor, power supply, mounting equipment and professional installation. The installation of computers and other hardware is not included and may be charged extra.
** Speeds listed are maximum; actual speed may vary. For example, a wireless router in your home or office typically results in a 15% loss of speed. These radios do bursting which means speed is not limited for the first approximately eight seconds after a pause in sending or receiving data; this may produce strange results on speed tests.
