2. Product Description
2.1 General Description
The Tsunami unlicensed radios provide a new level of control and convenience in a digital
communications network.
These Tsunami radios provide 100BaseT intelligent bridging between two locations without the delay
and expense of installing cable or traditional microwave.
Because each owner controls the operation of the link, there is no reliance on any outside services.
Tsunami radio operators are able to operate instant links whenever needed, and to be in control of
their own network.
The Tsunami offers two primary benefits:
❖CONVENIENCE Easy to install and operate with no user license
requirements or frequency coordination in the USA.
(Other countries may require a user license and/or
frequency coordination).
❖CAPABILITY Full transparent Fast Ethernet connections with no
throughput reduction over any line-of-sight distance (within
legal limits of government regulation)
