Integrated Antenna Series

Persistent Systems, LLC (“Persistent”) announced the launch of its powerful, streamlined, tower-mounted Integrated Antenna Series for military, security and civilian users of the Wave Relay® mobile ad hoc network (MANET).  

The Integrated Antenna Series comprises an S-band and C-band sector antenna as well as a C-band directional antenna—all of which have Wave Relay® MANET radio technology integrated right into the device. The result is faster installation, longer range, wider coverage, and connectivity with the enterprise network. 

The directional antenna links communication towers, creating a powerful wireless backbone network, while the sector antennas provide the long range and high throughput, establishing a large coverage area.  The Wave Relay® MANET radio, which is integrated into the antenna, handles all the data routing, enabling the fixed infrastructure to participate seamlessly in the MANET with mobile MPU5 users. 

Designed for installation in minutes, the new Integrated Antenna Series has only one Ethernet cable that provides both power and data connectivity. In addition, the MANET radio is housed in an IP66-rated enclosure on the back of the antenna, that can resist wind, rain, snow, and heat. This eliminates the need for additional weatherproofing.
