Cambium Networks recently set a new world record for longest network link recorded to date. In a link test spanning 245.8 kilometer stretch of land, Cambium Networks was able to successfully demonstrate both high-definition streaming video using AXIS cameras and VoIP services across state lines. To achieve this two parallel links were set up using the PTP 650 and PTP 700 products, demonstrating the signal strength and quality of both offerings. Using LinkPlanner, a Cambium product allowing for quick and easy PTP and PMP network design, teams were able to design and deploy a link providing VoIP and high-definition streaming video communication across rugged terrain and through high-density metro areas, without interruption.

This is a great achievement. It’s longer than anything most network operators would ever need to build. Most links are from 4 kilometers to 20 kilometers, and are very easy. By proving our technology at these extreme limits, network operators can deploy Cambium Networks PTP solutions with confidence.
