In the InfiNet company's product portfolio, the beamforming technology is implemented in the R5000-Qmxb base station sector models of the InfiMAN 2x2 point-to-multipoint family and E5-BSQ base station sector models of the InfiMAN Evolution family.
The R5000-Qmxb device integrated antenna and E5-BSQ devices integrated antennas includes 15 built-in templates of the radiation pattern with a main lobe width of 20º (gain 21 dBi) located with an offset of 5º from each other and one template with a lobe width of 90º (gain 15 dBi). Depending Depending on the chosen template, the device can operate in two modes:
...
- The power consumption of the devices with beamforming technology support is higher than for devices without it, therefore, IDU-BS-G (60W) power supplies are used to power the R5000-Qmxb and E5-BSQ devices.
- The R5000-Qmxb and E5-BSQ devices can only use a software version with TDMA technology (the differences between the two types of software are described in the TDMA and Polling: Application features article). Software with Polling technology support can be upgraded to software with TDMA technology support according to the instruction. In case of adjacent sectors, for example, in the implementation of the ABAB scheme, it is recommended to use the AUX-ODU-SYNC synchronization device.
