Base Station

The VistaMAX® OBR3650 is a WiMAX / IEEE 802.16-2004 outdoor base station. The OBR3650 is contained in a weatherproof, sealed housing and utilizes an external antenna and operates in the 3650 MHz to 3675 MHz band. External antennas are accommodated with an N female connector. The OBR3650 offers a direct bridged 100BaseT Ethernet connection to the base station network.

The VistaMAX 3.65 GHz system requires an additional indoor WES800 Ethernet Switch to provide power to sectors using the units and serve as the network connection point. The WES800 Ethernet Switch supports up to eight OBR3650 or OSR3650 elements. Connections to the backbone network and between outdoor elements are made through the integrated Ethernet switch in the WES800. An RJ-45 10/100/1000 Ethernet uplink port is included in the WES800 and an optional SFP module for 10/100/1000BaseT copper or 1000BaseX fiber connections can be purchased.

The base station configuration is flexible enough to allow for high density urban deployments, point-point backhaul and low density rural rollouts. Point-point backhaul can be used to connect the cell with other cells, main backbone interconnection points or create multiple point-point links to high data rate subscribers. Point-point backhaul links can be established using two OBR3650s or one OBR3650 plus one OSR3650 depending on data rate and distance requirements.

Subscriber Station

The VistaMAX OSR3650 subscriber transceiver is a self-contained outdoor unit which comprised the network interface, MAC, baseband PHY and radio portions of the VistaMAX solution. A single Ethernet cable provides both power and data to the outdoor unit. The OSR3650 is IEEE 802.3af-compliant for Power over Ethernet and can be powered with either the PoE midspan injector (VPNCPE/POE) or any switch/hub which supports 802.3af.

For long distance links or high capacity configurations, the VistaMAX OBR3650 can be configured to be used as a SS element. This provides maximum uplink and downlink throughputs and allows for higher output power to maximize coverage. In this configuration, an external flat panel or parabolic antenna can be used with the OBR3650.

The NMS8000 provides system operators with comprehensive tools to operate and manage VistaMAX networks from Vecima Networks.
The centralized design of the NMS8000 simplifies many common maintenance and administration tasks by allowing password protected access for qualified personnel to view and configure crucial network parameters from either in the field or at the office. The NMS8000 also provides a vital tool for Vecima Networks to provide remote assistance to its customers and guarantee end-user satisfaction. All transactions take place in a secure environment using HTTPS or SSH which are proven data encryption technologies.

Web-based control of Vecima Networks hardware
Continuously monitors and logs critical base station and subscriber station statistics
Continuously monitors and logs downlink and uplink CINR, RSSI and modulation/FEC (Rate ID)
On-demand report generation and analysis:
- Monitor and adjust downstream/upstream RF parameters
- Packet statistics
- Bandwidth usage and throughput
- Online/offline status monitoring
Enables Vecima to provide remote assistance to its customers

The NMS8000/SSP expands on the basic NMS8000 by adding functions for complete subscriber station provisioning that allow the system operator to create and administer custom subscriber service packages (i.e. Gold, Silver, Bronze) based on downstream/upstream data rates and priority. These policies are assigned directly to each subscriber station on the VistaMAX network. Similarly to the NMS8000, all transactions take place in a secure environment using HTTPS or SSH which are proven data encryption technologies.
The NMS8000/SSP saves time and money by dealing with a single, comprehensive, integrated system rather than outsourcing to several other more costly - and often incompatible - third party software alternatives.

NMS8000/SSP Features - Includes all NMS8000 features PLUS:

Subscriber IP allocation
Administer subscriber service packages
Adjust downlink/uplink bandwidth, IP distribution, etc.
