LigoWave is announcing a release of a new v6.70 open beta firmware for LigoPTP MiMo equipment. LigoWave has developed a new protocol named W-Jet MiMo 2™, which allows to increase the distance and performance of a link. This ground-breaking technology delivers 180 Mbps half-duplex and increases the distance of the link to more than 100 kilometers. It also makes the link more robust in a noisy environments where other equipment would not even associate or provide a really low throughput.
10 km test link in Vilnius, Lithuania with W-Jet MiMo 2 firmware
LigoWave has made 10 kilometre test link in a very noisy area with many equipment working on the same 5 GHz frequency. With the new W-Jet MiMo 2 protocol it was possible to reach 140 Mbps of throughput (see Picture 3). The settings of the link were as follows:
- Channel: 5210 MHz;
- Channel width: 40 MHz;
- Data rate: 270 Mbps;

- Tule(hill) – Culagua(hill) – 70 Km link – Throughput 74 Mbps
- Culagua(hill) – La viga(hill) – 47 Km link – Throughput 122 Mbps
- La viga(hill) – Neveria(hill) – 77 Km link – Throughput 70 Mbps
