Proxim Wireless Corporation, a core-to-client solutions provider for broadband wireless networks, has released the Tsunami MP.11 HS (high security) line of base station units, subscriber units and bridges. The new products provide governments, utilities and ultra-secure enterprises with FIPS 140-2 level 2 compliant point-to-point and point-to-multipoint solutions in the 5.1-5.95 GHz, 4.9 GHz, 2.4 GHz, and 1.8 GHz frequency bands.

According to Proxim Wireless, the Tsunami MP.11 HS product family offers ultra-secure broadband wireless solution for wireless video, data connectivity, VoIP and mobility, combining FIPS 140-2 level 2 compliance, advanced AES-256 encryption, and secure management to meet strict U.S. Federal Government standards. Unlike other products, Tsunami MP.11 HS is a truly integrated solution that offers these security features – as well as secure management – in one box. By combining this high security with the high throughput required for bandwidth-intensive video, the Tsunami MP.11 HS solution is appropriate for use in security video surveillance in ports, cities, and along transportation infrastructures, said the manufacturer.

The Tsunami MP.11 HS was designed to handle the specific challenges of delivering bandwidth-intensive video to mobile law enforcement vehicles, enabling mobile security patrol units to view wireless video surveillance in real-time. The Tsunami MP.11 HS enables this via new support of the governmental 1.8 GHz frequency while also enabling mobile roaming with seamless handoffs at speeds of up to 120 mph (200 km/hour), stated Proxim.

Though the Tsunami MP.11 HS was designed to meet or exceed the necessary government standards for secure wireless broadband solutions, Proxim is making the new product family available for all customers globally, the manufacturer said. This means that all enterprises and organizations concerned with deploying ultra-secure point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless systems possible now have access to Proxim’s MP.11 HS solution, noted Proxim.

The new Tsunami MP.11 HS product family includes two new subscriber units, two new base station units (one outdoor unit and one rack-mounted indoor unit), the Tsunami QuickBridge.11 HS bridge, a mobility kit and a 1.8 GHz converter amplifier. The subscriber units and base station units each come in both ruggedized POE-enabled and traditional 12-volt DC powered models.

These products are available now. Although all MP.11 HS platforms are FIPS 140-2 level 2 compliant, FIPS 140-2 level 2 certification is in process and is expected to complete in the third quarter, according to Proxim.
