Proxim Wireless Tsunami® QB-835: A Cost-effective Solution for


Connectivity in Elevators
Key Benefits of Tsunami® QB-835
High Availability Surveillance
The QB® 835 wireless systems leverage Proxim’s advanced suite of technologies – WORP®, Proxim ClearConnect™ and Proxim FastConnect™ to support up to
99.999% availability, enabling virtually non-stop monitoring and surveillance via cameras installed in elevators.

Enhance Guest Experience with WiFi


Guests and occupants expect high capacity WiFi throughout the premise. This includes the ability to continue a ‘whatsapp’ call or mobile session even when
they are inside an elevator. Any drop in WiFi access at any point in a premise, is not received well and impacts satisfaction levels. Enterprise grade ORiNOCO®
access points can be installed in elevators to provide reliable WiFi with easy social sign in.

Drive Revenue with Marketing Promotions


Notify your guests of all the latest events with display signage in elevators. Elevators are an often ignored real estate for promoting and engaging with your
guests. By connecting the display signage to the network, marketing teams can provide latest promotions and sales discounts. Additionally, marketing teams
can take advantage of ORiNOCO® access points with Purple WiFi platform to deliver customized sales promotions and marketing ads in mobile devices of
guests.

Current Challenges with Connectivity in Elevators


Traditional solutions include high tension Ethernet cables from either top or bottom of the elevator shafts. The biggest drawback of this solution is cable
severing. It is common for cables to snap due to wear and tear. In addition to the cost and constant maintenance of the high tension cables, the connection
downtime can result in elevators being put out of service to mitigate any loss of monitoring, leading to disgruntled guests and occupants.

Video Surveillance Access Point

Digital Signage

Elevator Deployment

What is Proxim’s Wireless Solution?


To address these challenges, Proxim Wireless offers the Tsunami® QB-835 ultra compact point to point link delivering up to 50 Mbps throughput. As
shown in the above deployment, the installation involves an end point at the top of the elevator shaft and the other end point on the elevator car. The
point to point link supports the communication between the main network and the elevator car, covering the entire shaft. In the elevator car, a Proxim WiFi
Access Point connecting to the End Point services the guests and also can connect the display board to the network.

Common Questions and Concerns


Can the solution support delay sensitive applications?
QuickBridge products leverage Proxim’s WORP®, a highly evolved MAC layer protocol designed to deliver voice, video and data applications. These products
are deployed across the world for sensitive applications such a video surveillance and VoIP. For more information please visit our case studies page.

As elevator cars move up and down an elevator shaft, the signal from antenna might disrupt and even fade at the farthest point.
The Tsunami® series of products are field tested and currently used in various mobile WiFi Solutions such as on board Tram WiFi, Bus WiFi etc. Mobility is a
common requirement in these applications with speeds and distances much higher than that of elevator cars traversing vertically. Also the range of our
products is of a few miles, which is much higher than the length of a shaft.

How do I monitor the network?


One can monitor the Proxim network via the ProximVision® Advanced Network monitoring and controller solution, or if desired by accessing the Web GUI.
In the case one is already using a network management solution our products support SMTP protocol making it compatible with other NMS and controllers.
