mast (when using external antenna) are grounded and suitable lightning
protection devices are used so as to provide protection against voltage surges and
static charges. In any event, Alvarion is not liable for any injury, damage or
regulation violations associated with or caused by installation, grounding or
lightning protection.

Chapter 1 - Product Description
1.1 Introduction
Alvarion's Wi² suite of converged solutions, including BreezeMAX Wi²and
BreezeACCESS Wi²("Wi²"), unites the advantages of the popular WiFi access with
the powerful capabilities of BreezeMAX or BreezeACCESS VL/4900
(“BreezeACCESS”) systems to provide cost-effective solutions for personal
broadband services.
The Wi² system comprises a self-contained combination of an advanced WiFi
access point and a BreezeMAX or BreezeACCESS SU-ODU that provides backhaul
connectivity. With its advanced roaming software, the Wi² can be deployed almost
anywhere to provide broadband mobility to standard WiFi (IEEE 802.11 b/g) end
user devices. Used in conjunction with Alvarion's market-leading BreezeMAX or
BreezeACCESS base stations, the Wi² can be used to expand the existing
capabilities of Alvarion's WiMAX and pre-WiMAX networks. Using the Wi², a
BreezeMAX or BreezeACCESS network can be used to provide personal
broadband services to high-end business as well as residential users equipped
with WiFi enabled devices such as laptops, PDAs, smart-phones, and portable
gaming devices. As a converged system, the Wi² also gives operators the ability to
seamlessly transition to a fully mobile WiMAX network with managed services for
personal broadband users.
Operating in both licensed and licensed-exempt frequencies, the Wi² system
leverages the easy availability of WiFi technology - along with the power and
robustness of BreezeMAX or BreezeACCESS broadband wireless access system -
to answer critical public and private sector needs such as traffic management,
video surveillance, public Internet access, homeland security, and various
nomadic applications.
The Wi² is a self-contained, robust all-outdoor system that comprises three
elements:
A feature-rich WiFi (IEEE 802.11 b/g) Access Point (AP)
A BreezeMAX/BreezeACCESS VL/BreezeACCESS 4900 SU-ODU (supplied
separately).
NOTE
In a BreezeACCESS VL/4900 backhauling link, an SU-54-BD model should be used.
2 System Description
Introduction
A power supply module that provides power to both the WiFi AP and the
SU-ODU.
The Wi² system requires only a single connection to either AC or DC power. With
its easy installation and operation, high performance, and rich security and QoS
feature sets, the Wi² is an ideal solution for operators, municipalities and
communities looking to build metropolitan broadband networks or to integrate
WiFi hot zone capabilities into their existing broadband wireless access networks.
The result is personal broadband services ranging from public Internet access to
public safety and Intranet applications.
NOTE
This document describes how to install and manage the Wi² system, including the installation and
connections of a BreezeMAX or BreezeACCESS SU-ODU when installed on the mounting plate of
the Wi2 system. For details on other installation options for the SU-ODU and how to manage it, refer
to the relevant BreezeMAX or BreezeACCESS VL/4900 documents.
