Product Selection Based on Distance and Throughput
The table provided below shows the reference values of the different antennas used to achieve particular distances. LigoWave recommends the Link Calculator to estimate wave propagation between devices located at exact geographical locations.
| Model Name | Channel Width, MHz | Tx Power, dBm | Antenna Gain, dBi | Distance*, km | |
| Full Capacity PTMP mode | Maximum Distance PTMP mode | ||||
| LigoBASE 5-90 |
80 | 31 | 17 | 6 | 12 |
| LigoSU 5-20 |
80 | 30 | 20 | 4 | 10 |
| LigoSU 5-23 | 80 | 30 | 23 | 6 | 12 |
External Antenna Selection
The table provided below shows the reference values for the different antennas and distances. LigoWave recommends the Link Calculator to calculate distances between devices with a custom-selected antenna gain and transmit power.
| Model Name | Station | Tx Power, dBm | Antenna Gain, dBi | Distance*, km | |
| Full Capacity PTMP mode | Maximum Distance PTMP mode | ||||
| LigoBASE 5N (18dBi) |
LigoSU 5-20 | 30 | 20 | 4.5 | 11 |
| LigoSU 5-23 | 30 | 23 | 6.5 | 12.5 | |
| LigoSU 5-N | 30 | 25 | 7 | 13 | |
| LigoSU 5-N | 30 | 30 | 9 | 18 | |
| LigoBASE 5N (20dBi) |
LigoSU 5-20 | 30 | 20 | 5.5 | 11.5 |
| LigoSU 5-23 | 30 | 23 | 7 | 13 | |
| LigoSU 5-N | 30 | 25 | 8 | 14 | |
| LigoSU 5-N | 30 | 30 | 10 | 19 | |
* The recommended distance is the distance at which LigoPTMP devices can achieve at least 50% of the possible throughput (fade margin at 15dBm).
Calculations are based upon clear LOS environment.
