What is Microwave Connectivity?
Microwave connectivity is a wireless data transmission technology that uses electromagnetic waves at high frequencies, typically between 1 GHz and 30 GHz. This form of communication is widely used to provide high-capacity links in locations where the installation of physical cables, such as fiber optics, may be unfeasible or extremely costly.
How Does Microwave Connectivity Work?
The microwave system operates by transmitting signals between two antennas, referred to as "points." One of these antennas emits the signal while the other receives it. These antennas must have a clear line of sight, free from obstacles like buildings or mountains, to ensure a stable and high-speed connection.
Each point transmits and receives data using specific frequencies, avoiding interference and ensuring a continuous flow of information. This type of communication is commonly used to connect networks in remote locations, rural areas, or in emergency situations.
Main Advantages of Microwave Connectivity
Cost-effectiveness
The installation of microwave links is significantly cheaper than implementing physical cables, such as fiber optics, especially in areas where terrestrial infrastructure is difficult to install.
Long-Distance Reach
The microwave system can cover great distances, reaching over 50 km between two antennas, depending on geographical conditions and equipment power.
Low Latency
As a wireless and high-capacity communication system, microwave connectivity offers low latency, which is essential for critical applications like video conferencing, real-time monitoring, and the transmission of sensitive data.
Quick Deployment
Unlike other technologies, such as fiber optics, which may take weeks or even months to install, microwave links can be set up in a short time, providing immediate connectivity.
Flexibility
Microwave connectivity can be used in various situations, including temporary connections for events, construction sites, or in hard-to-reach areas where other connectivity solutions are not available.
Redundancy for Critical Networks
In addition to being a primary solution for many companies, microwave technology is also used as redundancy for fiber optic networks, ensuring a stable connection in case of failures or maintenance.
