Integrated Lightning Protection

PTP 500 Series bridges provide built-in lightning
protection capability, eliminating the need to deploy
an external lightning protection device on a tower
or wall adjacent to the radio. While the lightning
protection built into the PTP 500 radio contains all the
protection required at the top of the tower or wall,
an external PTP Lightning Protection Unit (PTP-LPU)
is required near the base of the tower or wall at the
cable entrance point leading to the network.
Together the lightning protection capability built into
the PTP 500 radio and the external PTP-LPU offer
exceptional protection from the harmful effects
of lightning. However, 100% protection is neither
implied nor possible.

Reassuring, Robust Security

With Motorolas unique software, each PTP 500
wireless bridge will communicate only with its
user-configured counterpart at the other end of the
link and with no other. In addition, communications
are encoded using a unique scrambling mechanism
to secure over-the-air transmissions. Another layer
of security can be applied with FIPS-197 compliant
128-bit and 256-bit AES encryption (optional).

Typically, Motorola PTP 500 Series solutions are the
lower-cost option when you consider:
