General Description

P-Com’s second generation DataMetro® II wireless router provides wide area connectivity for packet oriented networking of multiple locations up to 30 miles (50 km) apart. This technology delivers very low bit error rate links that have high immunity to interference. Utilizing robust spread-spectrum technology, the DataMetro II provides an inherent degree of security along with added features to prevent network intrusions. 

DataMetro II is easily deployed, as licensing is not required in many countries. Advanced network management features using SNMP and the self-contained wireless router design make the DataMetro II easy to install and manage. These links are ideally suited as a cost-effective wireless solution for Internet Service Providers (ISP) as well as organizations with dispersed sites needing to connect computers or LANs.
