Industrial grade device Extensively tested for long term reliability and environmental durability, the IFWA device features a IP65 industrial-grade rugged outdoor enclosure, a wide temperature range operation and built in surge protection to withstand harsh environmental elements. Precision and ease of installation The IFWA device is professionally installed outdoors to ensure an optimal line of communication with its dedicated base station and maximise the network performance. Installation issues were taken into account during the conception phase, resulting in a practical product design and an installation accessory optimising the accuracy, time, and cost of the process with a zero touch post installation maintenance. Indoor unit The NetComm Wireless Indoor Unit is designed to power the IFWA device over Ethernet and deliver a high speed broadband connection to the premises. Indoor Power Unit Powers the IFWA device through Ethernet (PoE) 4x Gigabit LAN port Configurable LAN port Integrated lightning surge protecton PoE Injector Powers the IFWA device through Ethernet (PoE) Integrated lightning surge protecton OR 11
Features VoLTE Equipped with Voice over LTE capabilities, the NetComm Wireless IFWA device enables high quality phone calls with fast connection lines over the carrier s managed IP network. All the voice packets are transmitted over the wireless 4G LTE connection. Carriers now have the capacity to shut down their legacy PSTN network services and move to an all IP managed network to increase the efficiency of their resource and reduce operational costs. Advanced remote management - TR-069 A rich TR-069 remote management implementation including firmware upgrade, secure diagnostic and traffic uplink/downlink policing as well as levels of control ranging from traffic priority, classification and bandwidth can ensure QoS and increase the operational efficiency and performance; and improve after sales operations and costs as well as customer quality of experience. NetComm Wireless has developed and customised the IFWA software capabilities to bring quality of service, performance and efficiency to the network. 12
