This allows the operator to compare configurations at a glance and to access packet and radio statistics from a single interface. An integrated HTML interface is also standard, allowing password protected access from standard web browsers. Security While Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum systems are inherently resistant to interception or jamming, the 5800 offers additional protection because data integrity and security are a high concern for everyone today. The 5800 is designed to require continuous handshaking between the two ends of the link, including unique hardware serial number verification on each hop to a new frequency. If a third unit tries to intercept or eavesdrop on the transmission, the end to end communication will cease immediately and the appropriate SNMP trap will be generated.
Further protection is provided by payload scrambling, using pseudorandom keys.
Quick and easy to install, with no licensing requirements, users can deploy 5800 links in a matter of days from start to finish and begin enjoying the benefits that next generation wireless technology offers.
