BroadbandPlanner

This powerful and efficient wireless network design software helps you propose, design, deploy and measure wireless network solutions that include Wireless Broadband Mesh and Point-to-Multipoint products.

BroadbandPlanner’s advanced RF modeling engine, integration with Google Earth and streamlined measurement and verification capability enable you to propose wireless network solutions with confidence and deploy them with maximum efficiency. Optimizing network designs is easy with views that show optimal equipment placement, signal strength heatmaps, optimal urban-canyon remote access point locations and terrain obstruction path profiles.

Resources
Integrated Mesh and Point-to-Multipoint Design
Save time by planning Mesh and Point-to-Multipoint network layers together in one design tool. Includes Mesh 802.11a/b/g and Point-to-Multipoint 5.x GHz FSK and 4.9/5.4 GHz OFDM products. Fully replaces MeshPlanner for mesh network design.

Powerful and Fast RF Predictions
Create fast and accurate RF performance predictions which utilize terrain height as well as urban, environment and foliage clutter information.

Google Earth Visualizations
Create credible and compelling proposals with pan/zoom enabled network visualizations in Google Earth.

Integrated Measurement and Verification
Streamline deployments with integrated measurement features for Mesh and Point-to-Multipoint.

Optimal Equipment Placement Workflow
Easily choose the best equipment locations Mesh nodes and Point-to-Multipoint access points and subscriber modules, as well as the best access point for each subscriber module.

RSSI Heat-map Workflow
Quickly see the expected signal strength for a Point-to-Multipoint subscriber module in the RSSI heat-map view rather than sending a service van to the location.

Urban Networks Workflow
Efficiently design networks in urban areas with tall buildings where remote access points are required for backhaul.

Dynamic Path Profiler
Zero-in on bottle-necks by viewing the terrain and obstruction profile in real time between any two points on the map.

Platform Compatibility
Use with Windows XP/Vista. Convenient field portability through use on a laptop.
