“Hassle free, instantaneous and cost - effective long distance Point to Point Link (P-P) 12KM wireless connectivity !”
Madras Pharma's needs
- Madras Pharma's primary need is to establish a Point to Point (PP) link between its H.O in Chennai (T.Nagar) and its factory located in the city's outskirts-Karapakkam
- Secondly, Madras Pharma wants a Point to Multipoint bridging within its factory to connect different buildings.
- This wireless link when established would enable Madras Pharma to run their ERP applications.
The above picture shows one end of link with an AS 1000 with an external semi-parabolic antenna
BroVis makes it possible
- A pair of Air Station 1000 with a pair of semi-parabolic antenna is all that Madras Pharma needed to establish the Point-Point link.
- PP Link in 2.4GHz licence free band, No leased line charges, Free from wires, Low maintenance played to the advantage of Madras Pharma.
- The Point to Multipoint needs was addressed by three outdoor access points.
Why is this unique?
- The link is significant considering the fact that one end of the link is in Chennai City. City locations are prone to interferance, and LOS related issues. Despite these odds, the link was etablished. With a minimal one-time investment, Madras Pharma is now able to link their H.O with the factory, for which any other wired/wireless solution would have cost them heavily.
