Cambium Networks 60GHz cnWave V1000 client

Dense urban and enterprise environments often struggle with interference and limited spectrum, making reliable high-speed connectivity a challenge. The Cambium Networks 60GHz cnWave V1000 Client addresses this by leveraging the unlicensed V-band (57-66 GHz) with IEEE 802.11ay technology, delivering up to 1 Gbps symmetric throughput with ultra-low latency under 1 ms.

Who is it for

This client node is ideal for service providers, enterprises, and municipalities that need to extend mesh networks to remote buildings, surveillance cameras, or outdoor Wi-Fi hotspots. It suits deployments where fibre is impractical or too costly, and where interference-free, high-capacity links are essential.

Main features

• Integrated phased array antenna with 38 dBi gain and electronic beam steering for automatic alignment and resilience.
• Operates in the 57-66 GHz V-band with 2.16 GHz channel bandwidth, supporting QPSK to 256-QAM modulation.
• Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000Base-T) for high-speed wired backhaul.
• Powered by 802.3af/at PoE, simplifying installation with a single cable.
• Rugged IP66/IP67 enclosure withstands harsh outdoor conditions from -40°C to 65°C.
• Integrated GPS for precise timing and location, essential for mesh synchronization.
• Managed via Cambium Networks cnMaestro cloud or on-premises platform, with web GUI for local configuration.
• Advanced security with 128-bit AES encryption and MAC address filtering.
