Point-to-Point / Point-to-MultiPoint Wireless Systems

---

PTP = "Point to Point" Network

PTMP = "Point to Multi Point" Network

If a network connection is required to connect multiple locations that are too far apart for a physical cable (a span of 300′ or more), a "Point to Point" Network (or "Wireless Bridge) can be used. Point to Point links act as a network cable would, connecting buildings at distances under a mile and allowing them to share a private or public network. Point to Multi Point links can connect multiple commercial buildings, barns, or other outbuildings on your yard, details below.

A wireless Point to Point link can be used to share an existing Network or Internet connection with a another location. This option is most often used in areas where one location has an existing Network or Internet connection using a bracketed tower or popup mast and chooses to share that connection, eliminating the need to install their own bracketed tower or pop up mast. A switch would be installed in the main hosting location that will split the connections to allow for separate connections.

There are a few things to consider regarding a PTP with a Location:

• A clear line of sight from the hosting Location’s  to the Other Buildings or locations are still required to guarantee a great connection. This means height may still be required on the primary and/or secondary Location.

• Connecting all buildings on a Complex allows for computers to be networked across the Complex reports to be printed across the Complex, and file sharing across the Complex.
• Allows IP Cameras to be installed in all facilities and Buildings of the Complex and recorded on a single NVR including:

Multiple Buildings or Locations on the same Network can share services just as if they are on a wired system.
