ABOUT THE TSUNAMI MP.11A

The Tsunami MP.11a lets you set up a wireless system based upon two basic topologies:

▪Point-to-point link to connect one location to another

▪Point-to-multipoint link to connect one location to two or more other locations.

A link between two locations always consists of a Base Station Unit and a Subscriber Unit. A Base Station Unit can, depending upon its configuration, connect to one or more Subscriber Units; a Subscriber Unit, however, can connect to only one Base Station Unit at any given time.

Point-to-Point Link

With a Base Station Unit and a Subscriber Unit, it is easy to set up a wireless point-to-point link as depicted in the following figure.
