CAMBIUM NETWORKS nodo radio a installazione fissa Cnwave V5000 60 GHz

The Cambium Networks 60 GHz cnWave V5000 is a compact, high-capacity millimeter-wave radio designed for edge access and high-capacity backhaul. With two sectors and beamforming it covers up to 280 degrees and supports point-to-point (PTP), point-to-multipoint (PMP) and mesh topologies. A single V5000 can connect up to 30 client devices or up to four distribution nodes. The unit operates in the 60 GHz band, delivers a peak antenna gain of 22.5 dBi, and is built to withstand outdoor conditions with an IP66/IP67 rating and survival wind speed up to 200 km/h.

Advantages

The V5000 provides gigabit-capable wireless links with low total cost of ownership compared to fiber for many edge and backhaul deployments. It supports Facebook Terragraph-certified mesh configurations and uses beamforming across two sectors to increase capacity and coverage. Compact dimensions and PoE power simplify installation while IEEE networking compatibility and cnMaestro management enable centralized cloud or on-premises control and zero-touch provisioning.

Suitable for

• High-density urban and suburban wireless access
• Gigabit backhaul for Wi‑Fi access points or small cells (LTE/5G)
• PTP and PMP links for enterprise or service provider networks
• Mesh networks certified for Facebook Terragraph deployments

How to use

Mount the V5000 at a suitable outdoor location with clear line-of-sight to target nodes. Connect power via the specified PoE injector and link the device to the network controller. Choose the desired mode—PTP, PMP or mesh—and perform initial configuration and provisioning using cnMaestro in cloud or on-premises mode. Align sectors for optimal beamforming coverage and add client or distribution nodes as required. Monitor link status and performance through the cnMaestro interface and adjust settings for capacity and interference mitigation.

Recommendations

Install with unobstructed line-of-sight for reliable 60 GHz operation, ensure proper grounding and surge protection, and use cnMaestro for ongoing monitoring and firmware updates to maintain optimal throughput and availability.
