The Klearlink | HD uses a combination of a high performance embedded
network processor, high gain/ high performance radio modules available
for either 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, the HauteRoute OSTM operating
system which is optimized for high performance wireless devices like the
Klearlink | HD, and the HauteLINETM high performance wireless protocol,
to provide a 60Mbps ASI link for up to 12 Miles.
Klearlink | HD incorporates an MPEG-2 Encoder that can provide you with either 4:2:0 HDV compliant streams, or 4:2:2 at 50 Mbps. The ability to use the Klearlink | HD radios as an ASI pathway allows us to provide you with either an HD-SDI handoff, or ASI.
In real world testing, the Klearlink | HD, in a point to point bridge configuration, was able to achieve actual RTP stream throughput of 60Mbps with no data loss and no jitter on the 5 GHz band. Seven simultaneous RTP streams of 10Mbps were also tested and showed the same results: no jitter and no data loss.
The Klearlink | HD achieves these amazing results through the use of a non-blocking hardware architecture where the CPU, the wireless MAC/PHY, and the on-board system bus are all matched to one another. All elements of the architecture are balanced for maximum performance and throughput. The hardware is packaged in a rugged waterproof enclosure and is powered by 802.3af compliant Power Over Ethernet (PoE).
Finally, the HauteLINETM wireless protocol, which is designed specifically to leverage the capabilities of the radio modules and HauteRoute OSTM operating system used in the Klearlink | HD provides reliable, high performance throughput without jitter, data delay or packet loss.
Typical wireless applications using 802.11 or 802.16 protocols suffer from delay and stream interruption due to management overhead such as beaconing, polling and other functions. Management has been redesigned in the HauteLINETM protocol to not interrupt streaming.
Klearlink | HD has the ability to operate on a variety of frequencies. 900 MHz operation allows for non-line-of-sight operations, 2.4 GHz allow for global operation without licensing, 4.9 GHz allows for use by Public Safety Agencies, and 5 GHz operation allows for maximum throughput with limited noise. A simple module change is all that is required to move bands.
