Enhanced Coverage & Capacity
The WAP 450 is built with MIMO A & MIMO B, multiple antenna technologies that provide superior capacity and coverage in rural, suburban and urban environments. With Remote RF head design and high-power output to 10 watts per sector at the antenna ports, the WAP 450 is comparable to a 20 watt, ground based solution that looses power due to coaxial cable loss. With this power, the WAP 450 still provides enhanced capacity and coverage for thousands of subscribers, even with high downlink usage.

Reduced CAPEX / OPEX
The WAP 450 reduces costs by using only a simple fiber connection between the RF Antenna head and the base control unit. With ultra-light infrastructure and no heavy coaxial cables, the WAP 450 can be deployed by a single person and requires less ongoing maintenance. Fast deployment and reduced resource requirements result in faster return on investment compared to typical base stations.

The high power WAP 450 incorporate high receive sensitivity which also allows operators to reduce overall CAPEX and OPEX by deploying fewer access points compared to similar solutions. AT the same time, it provides higher bit rates to users throughout the coverage area. In addition, the WAP 450 is equipped with a compact base control unit, which is Motorola’s common broadband platform for both WiMAX and LTE. This new base control unit takes 80% lower site space, consumes less power and further reduces the operators’ capital and operating costs. Finally, with no-touch software upgrade capabilities, remote software enhancements can be accomplished with minimum operating costs.

Carrier Class Solution
Motorola’s WAP 450 is a carrier class solution that has global regulatory compliance and high availability. As the WiMAX network expands, interference and noise increases. The WAP 450 comes with a dynamic broadband capability feature that mitigates interference and dynamically changes capacity between the cell edge and the core as the network expands. These dynamic broadband capabilities continue to give service providers a high performance not only during the initial coverage stage but also during the capacity and network expansion stages.

The WAP 450 is available for selectable channel bandwidths, and is available in multiple WiMAX profiles, including 2.3GHz, 2.5GHz and 3.5GHz.

wi4 WiMAX
Motorola’s wi4 WiMAX portfolio of 802.16e products and services offers industry leading breadth and depth, allowing us to map the right architecture to meet an operator’s specific deployment issues. Recognizing that a true end-to-end solution extends beyond the access network, Motorola’s wi4 WiMAX solutions portfolio includes compelling devices and handsets, operations and management tools, integration and optimization services and, most important, the confidence to bring WiMAX to market.
