 – Fast and affordable outdoor wireless bridges
 
Hardware Description 
Ethernet Compatibility 
The AIRAYA WirelessGRID wireless bridge can be attached directly to 
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX (twisted-pair) Ethernet LAN segments. These 
segments must conform to the IEEE 802.3 specification. 
 
The WirelessGRID bridge functions as an Ethernet node and performs 
bridging by moving packets from a network in one building to a network in 
another building. 
 
Radio Characteristics 
The WirelessGRID bridge utilizes a radio modulation technique known as 
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) that operates in the 5 
GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (U-NII) band. Data is 
transmitted over a half-duplex radio channel at speeds of up to 108 Mbps. 
 
Antenna Type 
The outdoor version of the WirelessGRID bridge uses an integrated 23 dBi 
panel antenna to achieve a maximum operating range of 7.5 miles under 
FCC rules in the 5.8 GHz band. Range in the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 
ETSI/ITU 5.45 bands will vary based on power output and EIRP limitations, 
and local regulatory domain requirements. Please contact AIRAYA for 
additional antenna options. 
 
Enclosure  
The molded fiberglass polyester enclosure of WirelessGRID base stations 
and repeaters, and the metal enclosure of the WirelessGRID ODU have 
been designed for maximum durability for outdoor use in a range of 
weather conditions. They is watertight and meets NEMA/EEMAC Type 4, 
4X, 12, and 13 specifications.   
 
Cabling 
The WirelessGRID bridge includes a Category 5e cable designed for 
outdoor applications. It supports DC Power Over Ethernet for easy 
installation.  
Remote Power 
Power Over Ethernet is an integral part of the WirelessGRID bridge. The 
injector is capable of providing power at the full distance specified by the 
IEEE 802.3 Ethernet specification (100 meters).
