Motorola 5701BHDD - Canopy PTP 58100 Lite User Manual page 9

Operating in the 4.4 to 4.6 GHz licensed frequencies, the PTP 45600 bridges are designed to support U.S.
Federal and NATO licensees with cost-effective, high-throughput connectivity for a variety of applications
such as battlefield communications, public safety, video surveillance, border security, tactical military
operations, training and simulation networks, building-to-building and campus communications and robust
traffic backhaul. While the PTP 45600 bridges are available in Integrated and Connectorized versions, there
is no Lite version because PTP 45600 systems offer selectable channel sizes with varying data rates based
on the channel width selected.
In 2004, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) instituted the Educational Broadband Service
(EBS), formerly known as the Instructional Television Fixed Service (ITFS), with the primary purposes being
high-speed Internet access and the transmission of instructional material utilizing low-power broadband
systems. Designed for 2.5 GHz license holders with EBS programs, the PTP 25600 solutions provide
network operators with high-throughput, low-latency and high-availability connectivity to deliver even the
richest educational applications flawlessly. Like the PTP 45600, the PTP 25600 bridges are available in
Integrated and Connectorized versions, but no Lite version.

power Restrictions for 5.4 GHz Solutions:
It is important to note that governmental authorities in the US, Canada and EU have imposed power
restrictions on 5.4 GHz radios. Motorola's PTP 54300, PTP 54400, PTP 54500 and PTP 54600 bridges
comply with those power restrictions, providing solutions that are particularly well suited for:
• Line-of-sight hops – up to 12 miles (20 km)
• Non-line-of-sight links – up to 3 miles (5 km)
• Backhaul for point-to-multipoint and mesh networks
In regions where power restrictions are not imposed, as well as for U.S. Federal Government agencies that
are exempt from the power restrictions, network operators can request an Alternate License Key to set
their systems to operate at full power, thereby achieving long-distance line-of-sight communications.
The PTP 54200 bridges also comply with these power restrictions, providing cost-effective solutions for
nLOS and LOS hops of up to 5 miles (8 km) in distance.
