Pronghorn Metro Main Board Overview
The Pronghorn Metro is a modular, multi-radio, high-power mesh wireless platform that is
based on industry-standard, open-architecture interfaces and hardware. Pronghorn Metro is
a RoamAD-compliant Intelligent Network Node (INN), with RoamAD
based on industry-standard, open-architecture interfaces and hardware. Pronghorn Metro is
a RoamAD-compliant Intelligent Network Node (INN), with RoamAD
’s wireless networking
software already ported and fully validated on the platform. The open, modular architecture
of Pronghorn Metro combined with innovative wireless networking software from aCure
Technology provides a highly flexible yet very low cost mesh infrastructure solution, with a
clear upgrade path to WiMAX and other next-generation radio technologies.
The Pronghorn Metro Main Board is designed specifically for metro-scale outdoor wireless
infrastructure applications. Among its key features are:
