Cambium Networks 5480AP PMP 430 5.4GHz Point-to-Point Access Point 50Mbps

The Cambium Networks PMP 430 5480AP is a 5.4 GHz OFDM-based point-to-multipoint access point engineered for carrier-grade and enterprise broadband wireless deployments. Leveraging OFDM technology, the 5480AP delivers reliable connectivity across line-of-sight, near-line-of-sight, and non-line-of-sight environments, making it well-suited for challenging RF conditions common in urban, suburban, and rural service areas. With aggregate throughput exceeding 50 Mbps and built-in GPS synchronization capability, the 5480AP supports scalable, interference-managed network architectures. Its support for data, voice, and video transport in a single platform makes it a practical choice for service providers, enterprises, and municipalities building or expanding fixed wireless infrastructure.

Key features & benefits

• 5.4 GHz OFDM Technology — Operates in the 5.4 GHz frequency band using OFDM modulation, providing resilience against multipath interference and consistent performance across LOS, nLOS, and NLOS propagation conditions.
• Point-to-Multipoint Architecture — Designed as a PMP access point, the 5480AP enables a single unit to serve multiple subscriber modules simultaneously, supporting efficient spectrum use and scalable network growth.
• 50+ Mbps Aggregate Throughput — Delivers more than 50 Mbps of aggregate throughput across the sector, providing ample capacity for mixed data, voice, and video traffic loads in demanding deployment environments.
• GPS Synchronization — GPS synchronization support enables coordinated transmit and receive timing across co-located access points, reducing self-interference and allowing higher-density deployments on shared spectrum.
• Flexible Subscriber Module Throughput Licensing — Compatible subscriber modules support throughput tiers of 4 Mbps, 10 Mbps, 20 Mbps, or uncapped, upgradeable via software licensing to match service tier requirements without hardware changes.
• Co-location Support — Supports co-location with other compatible Cambium PMP access points, enabling operators to build high-capacity tower or rooftop deployments with multiple sectors sharing the same site.
• Triple-Play Transport — Engineered to carry data, voice, and video traffic across the wireless link, providing a converged transport platform suitable for service providers offering bundled broadband services.
