Description

DLB PROPELLER 5

The DLB Propeller 5 is a new generation wireless device designed for client and small scale base-station applications. It has a unique mechanism to do mechanical antenna parameter shifting and achieve the best performance in different operating modes (patent pending).

This product is equipped with a high output power MIMO radio (up to 28 dBm) and 15 dBi dual-polarized antenna which make the device ideal for short to medium range wireless communication.

Our dual firmware image will allow safe software upgrades. The device will restart using the prior firmware in the event of an upgrade failure.

The DLB Propeller 5 uses an advanced and feature-rich operating system which supports bridge/router and repeater modes (repeater mode allows the product to operate as an access point and as a station at the same time). The DLB OS also supports LigoWave’s iPoll2 (proprietary wireless communication technology) to increase throughput, packet per second rate and stabilize latency on your network. It has a user-friendly HTML 5 based GUI with instant reconfiguration without a reboot, includes useful installation tools (site survey, delayed reboot, spectrum analyzer, ping, traceroute) and is compatible with our standalone and cloud based Wireless Network Management System (Infinity controller) – one of the most advanced management tools on the market.

The DLB Propeller 5 can be rotated to the horizontal orientation for use as a client device. This greatly reduces interference, as the main noise source is on the azimuth. Alignment is easy as only left and right movement of the device is necessary (no need to move it upwards or downwards as the antenna angle on the elevation is wide).

OS

The DLB OS is a highly functional and easy to use operating system. This powerful and flexible operating system ensures flawless operation of all DLB hardware devices and effortless setup for those deploying the networks.

• Smart polling data transmission protocol (iPoll 2)
• Dual-firmware image support
• Responsive HTML 5 based GUI
• 170 Mbps capacity
• 80,000 PPS rate
• IPv6 support
• Infinity Controller compatible

INFINITY CONTROLLER

The Infinity Controller is LigoWave’s proprietary element management system that facilitates network installation, configuration, control, maintenance, monitoring, and expansion.

The Infinity Controller is designed to work with Infinity (NFT), LigoDLB, and LigoPTP NEs. It offers full functionality with the Infinity series and LigoDLB series, but only supports the monitoring feature on LigoPTP NEs. The PTP configuration feature is currently undergoing development
