Trango shows high-performance mesh solution

Published 5 April 2006

Trango’s new HD Mesh system is configurable to many critical infrastructure locations. Its most important feature: maintaining strength while growing and adapting to other network systems

Mesh networks have been popular with first responders rushing to a disaster scene because of their self-healing and adaptable architecture. Now, San Diego, California-based Trango Broadband Wireless is showing its HD Mesh system configurable for a variety of remote video and data homeland security applications. Trango’s wireless HD Mesh may be used in security related applications, including in critical infrastructure facilities such as nuclear power plants, airports, port districts, military bases, water treatment facilities, railroads, and more. The system operates as a self-healing, hi-performance backbone ring capable of 45 Mbps. It is available in multiple frequency bands, including the public safety and first responder 4.9 GHz licensed band and the 5.3, 5.4 and 5.8 GHz unlicensed bands.

One advantage of Trango’s system: Existing mesh systems typically sacrifice bandwidth to provide system redundancy. The company says its system allows for flexibility and scalability to grow with the needs of a particular network, as other mesh systems do, but does so without performance degradation.
