backhaul, it will not work. Ping will work if it is tagged with appropriate management
VLAN ID and it is sent through management port.
NOTE: Base Station Unit and Subscriber Stations need to be configured in the
VLAN Mode to avoid any configuration issues. It is not recommended to run the
base station in the Bridge Mode and Subscriber station in the VLAN Mode. However,
this combination might work but we do not guarantee and Aperto does not support
in this mode.
1.2.3 Point-to-Point Mode
The PacketMAX 5000/3000 Base Stations in combination with PacketMAX 100/300
Subscriber Stations provide high-speed, cost-effective links for point-to-point applica-
tions. With unprecedented interference resilience and minimal spectrum usage, they
are ideal for such applications as high-speed backhaul of Wi-Fi hotspot networks,
higher-capacity alternatives to T1/E1 connections, and building-to-building connec-
tions in the enterprise environments.
Features that support Point-to-Point applications include:
Support for 3.3, 3.5, and 5.8 GHz frequency bands
High interference immunity
Exceptional wireless range (up to approximately 35 to 50 miles/ 55 to 80 km,
depending on the frequency band)
Outdoor radio units with connectorized output for high-gain antennas to extend
the range of the wireless link.
Synchronization between units
Management via SNMP-based Element Management System.
